James Webb Space Telescope Finds Most Distant Galaxy Ever Detected
The James Webb Space Telescope has discovered MoM-z14, the most distant galaxy ever observed, dating to just 280 million years after the Big Bang. The galaxy’s brightness, chemical richness, and structure challenge existing theories of early cosmic evolution. Scientists say the finding highlights a growing gap between models and observations of t...

James Webb Telescope Discovers Most Distant Galaxy From Just 300 Million Years After the Big Bang
The James Webb Space Telescope has discovered the most distant galaxy ever observed, JADES-GS-z14-0, seen as it existed just 300 million years after the Big Bang. Its unexpected brightness and chemical complexity suggest rapid early star formation, challenging long-standing theories about how the first galaxies evolved in the early universe.

Scientists Search the Big Bang’s Afterglow for Signs of Colliding Parallel Universes
Some physicists argue our universe may be just one bubble in a much larger multiverse. Inflation theory suggests countless universes can form, each with different physical laws, while quantum mechanics allows branching realities. This idea could explain why cosmic constants appear finely tuned for life. However, other universes may be fundamentally...

New Gravitational-Wave Signal May Reveal Primordial Black Holes Born After the Big Bang
Scientists have spotted an unusual gravitational-wave signal that may reveal the universe’s first primordial black holes—tiny relics dating back to the Big Bang. Recorded by LIGO–Virgo–KAGRA in November 2025, the event involves an object far lighter than any known stellar remnant. If verified, it could reshape theories of black holes and da...

Scientists Recreate Universe’s First Molecules, Challenging Early Star Formation Theories
Scientists have recreated helium hydride ions, the universe’s first molecules, under lab conditions. The study reveals these ions were far more effective in driving early star formation than older theories suggested. Published in Astronomy and Astrophysics, the research reshapes understanding of early cosmic chemistry and challenges assumptions a...

What Is Dark Energy? The Mystery Behind The Expanding Universe
Dark energy makes up roughly 70 percent of the universe, yet we know nothing about it. Around 25 percent of the universe is the equally mysterious dark matter, leaving just five percent for everything that we can see and touch.

Water May Have Formed in the Universe 100 Million Years After Big Bang
A new study suggests water formed in the universe just 100–200 million years after the Big Bang, much earlier than previously estimated. Researchers examined ancient supernovas to understand how oxygen combined with hydrogen to create water. If confirmed, these findings could change perspectives on when the conditions for life first emerged. The ...

Early Supernovas Could Have Created Water in the Universe, Paving the Way for Life 100 Million Years Post-Big Bang
A recent study suggests that supernova explosions, triggered by the death of early stars, could have created significant amounts of water just 100 million years after the Big Bang. Simulations of these early, massive stars show that their explosive deaths may have resulted in the formation of water molecules within the dense hydrogen and oxygen clo...

Dark Matter Could Be Linked to a ‘Dark Big Bang’, New Study Suggests
New research suggests that dark matter may have originated from a "Dark Big Bang," a cosmic event distinct from the standard Big Bang. Proposed by scientists at Colgate University, the theory explores scenarios where dark matter could have been introduced into the universe up to a year after the initial Big Bang. Unlike regular matter, dark matter ...
