Astronomers Find ‘Impossible’ Galaxy ACDG-2 With Virtually No Stars and a Massive Dark Matter Core
Astronomers have identified CDG-2, a faint galaxy in the Perseus cluster that appears to be composed almost entirely of dark matter. Located 300 million light-years from Earth, it was discovered by tracking globular star clusters using data from Hubble, Euclid, and Subaru telescopes. Scientists estimate that about 99% of its total mass is dark matt...

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.

James Webb Space Telescope Spots Most Distant Galaxy That Existed 280 Million Years After Big Bang
MoM-z14's light has travelled over 13.5 billion years to reach Earth, the scientists have revealed.

Astronomers Discover Shockingly Hot Young Galaxy Cluster That Defies Theory
Astronomers have identified an exceptionally hot galaxy cluster forming just 1.4 billion years after the Big Bang. Observations reveal gas temperatures far exceeding theoretical limits, suggesting an unexpectedly violent early formation. The discovery challenges standard models of galaxy cluster evolution and points to intense activity from starbur...

Hubble Telescope Spots Starless Dark Matter Cloud Cloud 9, Opening Window Into Dark Universe
Hubble has discovered Cloud 9, a starless dark-matter cloud near galaxy M94, offering scientists a rare chance to study early galaxy formation. This failed galaxy, part of a class known as RELHICs, shows hydrogen gas but no star formation, highlighting the role of dark matter in shaping the cosmos and revealing potential hidden structures in our lo...

NASA Finds Most Distant Calm Galaxy Cluster Ever Seen in Early Universe
Astronomers using NASA’s Chandra X-ray Observatory have discovered SPT-CL J2215-3537, a massive galaxy cluster located 8.4 billion light-years away. Nicknamed the “Champagne Supernova” cluster, it is the most distant relaxed cluster ever observed, showing no signs of recent collisions. Its calm structure and active star formation challenge ex...

NASA’s Chandra Spots Champagne Cluster Formed by a Massive Galaxy Collision
Discovered on New Year’s Eve 2020, the Champagne Cluster is a striking pair of colliding galaxy clusters revealed through combined X-ray and optical observations. NASA’s Chandra X-ray Observatory shows superheated gas stretched and distorted, exposing a massive cosmic collision hidden from visible light alone. Studied by UC Davis astronomers, t...
