Vera C. Rubin Observatory Unveils First Images, Hints at Universe’s Dynamic Secrets Ahead
The Rubin Observatory’s first image captures 10 million galaxies, marking the start of a decade-long sky survey. With its powerful telescope and LSST camera, it will scan the southern sky every three nights, unveiling hidden galaxies, stellar nurseries, and transient cosmic events. Scientists anticipate transformative discoveries about dark matte...

Fast Radio Bursts Reveal Universe’s Missing Matter Hidden in Cosmic Intergalactic Fog
Astronomers have uncovered the universe’s missing baryonic matter using rapid radio bursts. The study, published in Nature Astronomy, shows that most ordinary matter lies between galaxies, hidden in faint intergalactic clouds. This breakthrough highlights FRBs as powerful tools to probe cosmic structures, paving the way for discoveries in large-s...

Hubble Unveils Galactic ‘Cotton Candy’ in the Large Magellanic Cloud
NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope has captured a breathtaking image of glowing gas and dust in the Large Magellanic Cloud, a dwarf galaxy orbiting the Milky Way. The colorful filaments—nicknamed “galactic cotton candy”—highlight active star-forming regions. Taken with five filters across ultraviolet to infrared wavelengths, the image reveals ...

Hubble Spots Isolated Barred Spiral Galaxy That’s Secretly Part of a Cosmic Duo
Hubble’s latest view features NGC 3507, a barred spiral galaxy in Leo, secretly traveling with its companion NGC 3501. Though only one is captured in the frame, both are spiral galaxies seen from different angles, offering a dual cosmic perspective. The image also reveals nearby stars and faint, distant galaxies across the backdrop of deep space.

Hubble Captures First-Ever Rogue Black Hole Devouring a Star Outside Galactic Core
Astronomers led by Dr. Yuhan Yao have discovered the first offset tidal disruption event (TDE), where a rogue black hole outside a galaxy's core ripped apart a star. Spotted by the Hubble telescope and Zwicky Transient Facility, this marks historic evidence of a wandering supermassive black hole in action.

Astronomers Discover Potential ‘Dark Galaxy’ Near the Milky Way
Astronomers have spotted a massive hydrogen cloud near the Milky Way that may be a rare dark galaxy—an object composed of gas and dark matter but lacking stars and light. Detected through radio telescopes, the galaxy-like structure challenges conventional astronomy and could reveal hidden phases of galaxy formation and dark matter interaction in ...

James Webb Space Telescope Reveals a Stunning Einstein Ring in Hydrus
A striking new image from the James Webb Space Telescope reveals an Einstein ring in the Hydrus constellation. The phenomenon occurs when a massive foreground galaxy bends light from a hidden background galaxy, forming a near-perfect ring. This effect, predicted by Einstein’s theory of general relativity, helps astronomers study galaxies from the...

Webb Telescope Unveils Hidden Process Behind Star Formation in Phoenix Cluster
NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope has uncovered the missing link in star formation within the Phoenix galaxy cluster. By mapping intermediate-temperature gas, researchers identified a crucial phase of cooling that was previously undetected. This discovery explains why the cluster’s supermassive black hole does not fully prevent star formation, ...

Scientists Discover Hidden Clues to the Dark Universe in 3D Galaxy Maps
A breakthrough study has revealed new insights into the "dark universe," which consists of dark matter and dark energy. By using a novel technique called field-level inference (FLI), scientists have discovered previously hidden details in 3D galaxy maps. This method preserves the three-dimensional nature of the data, unlike traditional compression ...

Astronomers Spot Hundreds of Hidden Supermassive Black Holes Using Infrared
Hundreds of hidden supermassive black holes have been identified using infrared observations, offering fresh insights into their role in galaxy formation. Researchers relied on data from NASA's Infrared Astronomical Satellite (IRAS) and the Nuclear Spectroscopic Telescope Array (NuSTAR) to detect emissions from black holes obscured by thick clouds ...
