Scientists Discover Rare, Nearly Invisible Galaxy Dominated By Dark Matter
According to researchers, approximately 99 percent of this galaxy's total mass is dark matter.

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...

Astronomers Discover "Inside-Out" Planetary System With Rocky World Beyond Gas Planets, Challenging Formation Theories
Since the 1990s, scientists have discovered approximately 6,100 planets outside our solar system, called exoplanets.

NASA’s Hubble Captures Rare Pre-Planetary Transformation as Twin Beams of Light Pierce the Cosmic Dust
A new Hubble image reveals twin beams blasting from a hidden dying star inside the Egg Nebula, a rare pre-planetary phase. The symmetrical arcs and glowing lobes show how Sun-like stars shed dust and gas before forming planetary nebulae, offering scientists a rare glimpse into stellar evolution.

NASA's Hubble Space Telescope Captures Rare Cosmic Couple
Hen 2-427 is considered a Wolf-Rayet class star. Such stars were named after astronomers Charles Wolf and Georges Rayet.

Unique Inside-Out Planetary System Reveals Unexpected Rocky World on the Outer Edge
Astronomers have discovered a rare inside-out planetary system around LHS 1903, where a rocky planet exists beyond gas giants. Using ESA’s CHEOPS telescope, researchers found evidence that planets formed one after another in a gas-depleted environment, challenging long-standing theories about how planetary systems form and evolve across the galax...

Astronomers Witness Rare Failed Supernova in Andromeda Galaxy
NASA’s NEOWISE infrared telescope has provided striking evidence that a massive star in the Andromeda galaxy collapsed directly into a black hole without exploding as a supernova. The star, M31-2014-DS1, faded dramatically in visible light while leaving a faint infrared glow from surrounding dust. Astronomers say this rare “failed supernova” ...

Hubble Reveals Dramatic Final Moments of a Sun-Like Star in the Egg Nebula
NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope has released a striking new image of the Egg Nebula, capturing a Sun-like star in its brief pre-planetary phase. Twin beams of light pierce glowing shells of dust and gas, offering astronomers a rare close-up view of stellar death about 1,000 light-years from Earth.
