New computer simulations suggest the first magnetic fields that emerged after the Big Bang were much weaker than expected — ...

Astronomers using the James Webb telescope have zoomed in on a 'Little Red Dot' that existed just 500 million years after the Big Bang, and found that it may contain the earliest known black hole in ...

A new study reveals Quipu, a vast network of galaxy clusters and superclusters, being dubbed the largest structure in the known universe.

And although it has the highest radius of all the stars, it is not actually the most massive, as UY Scuti is about 30 times the weight of our sun, a stark reminder that you can't judge a star entirely ...

A cosmic fluke helped Hubble spy Earendel, a giant star at the edge of the known universe that could tell us more about what happened after the Big Bang.

Chinese astronomers have spotted a hidden supermassive black hole in the background of a peculiar gravitational wave event ...

That cosmologists cannot agree on one of the most elementary facts about the universe is striking enough. But that uncertainty produces others, too: it makes it impossible to calculate an exact age ...

However, further observations from the Hubble Space Telescope revealed that Pismis 24-1 is actually a triple star system. This system includes one star 66 times the mass of our Sun, alongside a ...

Astronomers have discovered what is claimed to be the oldest confirmed black hole in the universe, providing a glimpse into ...

Information could become the fifth state of matter alongside gas, plasma, liquid, and solid states. A scientist has proposed ...

Astronomers have discovered "dust-shrouded supermassive black holes" in the early universe, less than 1 billion years after ...
