In an awe-inspiring moment for space exploration, NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) has snapped a breathtaking photo featuring thousands of galaxies in one picture. The incredible landscape is a part of the COSMOS-Webb survey. It is one of the biggest surveys ever carried out by the telescope. The picture is a profound and dimensional…
Hidden 600 million light-years away in the vastness of space from our naked eye sight lies a sneaky giant that’s eating up any unsuspecting star that ventures too close. This black hole made everyone remember its presence in a flashy tidal disruption event (TDE), tearing apart and consuming an unsuspecting star, emitting a huge blast…

PARIS: Dark energy makes up roughly 70 per cent of the universe, yet we know nothing about it.Around 25 per cent of the universe is the equally mysterious dark matter, leaving just five per cent for everything that we can see and touch, matter made…
In this image from video provided by SpaceX, the company’s SpaceX’s Falcon rocket, carrying NASA’s newest space telescope, Spherex, lifts off from Vandenberg Space Force Base Nasa’s latest space telescope was launched into orbit on Tuesday with the mission to create an unprecedented map of the entire sky, observing hundreds of millions of galaxies and…
Since Hubble’s launch, astronomers have discovered over 1 trillion galaxies, but Andromeda stands out as the closest and most significant to our Milky Way. Visible to the naked eye on clear autumn nights, it appears as a faint, cigar-shaped object, roughly the size of the Moon in the sky. (Image credits: Nasa) Source link
Nasa’s Hubble Space Telescope has captured a rare cosmic phenomenon—an enormous galaxy, LEDA 1313424, rippling with nine star-filled rings after being struck by a much smaller blue dwarf galaxy.This incredible sight resembles a celestial bullseye and has more rings than ever detected in any galaxy.The team’s findings were published on Tuesday in The Astrophysical Journal…
Nasa’s James Webb Space Telescope has discovered a galaxy from the early universe, offering a rare look at how galaxies like the Milky Way may have formed.The galaxy, known as “Firefly Sparkle” for its shining star clusters, dates back to 600 million years after the Big Bang, when the universe was only 5 per cent…
