JWST Finds Black Hole Between Galaxy Cores, Hinting at Rare Direct Collapse Birth
- Thursday July 17, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
Using JWST, astronomers discovered a black hole between two galaxy cores in the Infinity Galaxy—possibly the first direct evidence of a black hole formed by gas collapse, not stellar death. This rare “heavy seed” black hole challenges standard models and could help explain how supermassive black holes appeared so soon after the Big Bang.

James Webb Telescope Spots Rare ‘Cosmic Owl’ Formed by Colliding Galaxies
- Monday July 14, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope has unveiled the “Cosmic Owl,” a jaw-dropping image of two colliding ring galaxies forming a structure that resembles an owl’s face. This double-ring formation is extraordinarily rare, and the event is shedding light on galaxy evolution, black hole dynamics, and rapid star formation. Led by Ph.D. student Mi...

Most Distant Mini-Halo Discovered in Galaxy Cluster 10 Billion Light-Years Away
- Monday June 30, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
Astronomers have uncovered the most distant mini-halo ever detected, located around the galaxy cluster SpARCS1049, a staggering 10 billion light-years from Earth. Using the LOFAR radio telescope network, which spans eight European countries, researchers detected a faint, diffuse glow—evidence of a giant cloud of high-energy particles and magnetic...

Astronomers Spot Galaxy NGC 3640 With a Past of Consuming Smaller Galaxies
- Tuesday February 25, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
Recent observations of NGC 3640 reveal a history of merging with smaller galaxies. Located 88 million light-years away, the elliptical galaxy is suspected to be on a collision course with NGC 3641. The Very Large Telescope captured structural distortions, hinting at previous mergers. Researchers have identified ancient stars acting as fossil marker...

Strange Fast Radio Bursts Emerge from an Ancient Dead Galaxy, Baffling Scientists
- Monday February 24, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
Scientists have detected mysterious fast radio bursts (FRBs) from the outskirts of an 11 billion-year-old dead galaxy. This discovery challenges the belief that FRBs primarily originate from young, star-forming galaxies. Researchers suspect the bursts may result from colliding stars or a collapsing white dwarf. The Canadian Hydrogen Intensity Mappi...

- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
NASA’s Hubble and Chandra telescopes have uncovered a bizarre sideways black hole in the galaxy NGC 5084, located 80 million light-years away. The black hole’s unexpected tilt suggests it may have been influenced by a violent galactic collision. A new image processing technique, SAUNAS, revealed X-ray plumes in the galaxy, hinting at a cosmic e...

Ancient Galaxy Collisions May Explain Formation of Massive Early Star Systems
- Monday December 9, 2024
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
Research published in Nature reveals that ancient galaxy collisions may have led to the creation of the universe’s largest star systems. Using data from the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA), scientists studied over 100 galaxies undergoing intense star formation. These collisions are believed to have occurred 8 to 12 billion yea...

Hubble Telescope Reveals Milky Way Blowing Gas off LMC Galaxy in Close Encounter
- Monday November 18, 2024
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope has captured an extraordinary phenomenon as the Milky Way galaxy exerts ram pressure on the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC), stripping away most of its gas halo. The interaction, which occurs as LMC passes near the Milky Way, has led to the loss of significant mass from the dwarf galaxy. Despite this, LMC retains enough...
