NASA's powerful James Webb Space telescope has revealed a colorful spread of stars and cosmic dust in the Milky Way's most active star-forming region. The telescope was studying Sagittarius B2, a ...

A collaborative team has revealed new observational evidence that sheds light on the mystery of massive star formation. Researchers from Yunnan University, the Shanghai Astronomical Observatory of the ...

If "chaos is a ladder," then brilliant stars forming from discordant gas and dust are the ultimate example of that. The James Webb telescope has imaged one of the more dramatic stellar nurseries in ...

Astronomers have gained insights into star formation by capturing the first spatially resolved detection of protostellar outflows and jets in the Milky Way's outer region. The research is published in ...

Protostellar jets were detected for the first time using ALMA in the Milky Way’s outer region, showing that star formation works similarly in distant, low-metallicity regions, whereas the chemistry ...

This intermediate spiral galaxy spans roughly 65,000 light-years—about half our own galaxy’s width, yet every bit as dynamic. At its core lurks a supermassive black hole weighing between 3 and 10 ...

Two of the objects in the arrangement are cold brown dwarfs, which will serve as a benchmark for others throughout the Milky Way. By Katrina Miller Zenghua Zhang, an astronomer at Nanjing University ...

The Ultimate Collection of Computer Science & Engineering projects - 100+ curated project ideas across 17+ domains with structured learning paths, difficulty ratings, and comprehensive tech stacks.

The binary star system ν Octantis has long been considered hostile to planet formation. The discovery of a white dwarf in the system offers an alternative view. However, Cheng and colleagues observe ...

When a star is born, it doesn’t emerge in isolation. Instead, it forms inside a large, chaotic cloud of gas and dust. Around it, a flat disk of spinning material takes shape. This protoplanetary disk ...
