NGC 7292: Unveiling the Secrets of an Irregular Galaxy

NGC 7292, a captivating galaxy located 44 million light-years away in the constellation Pegasus, has fascinated astronomers with its peculiar characteristics. As captured by the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope, this irregular galaxy lacks the defined spiral arms or elliptical shape commonly associated with other galaxies. Instead,...

Webb Telescope Discovers Galaxies’ Impact on Early Universe Transformation

New findings from NASA's James Webb Space Telescope shed light on the remarkable transformation of the early universe, revealing the pivotal role played by galaxies in shaping its evolution. In an era known as the Era of Reionization, approximately 1 billion years after the...

IceCube and Fermi Data Provide Compelling Evidence for Quantum Gravity Discovery

New research using IceCube and Fermi data presents compelling evidence supporting the discovery of quantum gravity, marking a significant breakthrough in understanding the fundamental nature of the universe. Researchers from the University of Naples "Federico II," the University of Wroclaw, and the University of Bergen...

Webb draws back curtain on universe’s early galaxies

The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) of NASA has discovered an unexpectedly rich realm of early galaxies. It had previously been largely hidden, beyond the reach of other telescopes. Researchers discovered two extremely bright galaxies that existed between 350 and 450 million years after the...

ESO images a wondrous star factory to mark 60 years of collaboration

The Cone Nebula is located about 2500 light-years away in the star-forming region of space NGC 2264. Its columnar shape is a perfect example of the shapes that can form in the massive clouds of cold molecular gas and dust. These are known to...

On its hunt for dark energy, a telescope stopped to look at the Lobster Nebula

If you thought studying dark matter was difficult, imagine how difficult it is to study dark energy. Dark energy is one of the universe's most subtle phenomena. It drives cosmic evolution, but its effects are only visible on intergalactic scales. To study dark energy...
