While we have plenty of spiral galaxies, like our own Milky Way, these are only the most common types of galaxies out there. There are still others, like elliptical or irregular galaxies.
"The large volume of data from Rubin will give us a sample of all kinds of Type Ia supernovas at a range of distances and in ...
An ultra-deep image from the National Science Foundation's Dark Energy Camera reveals a wide variety of galaxies in the ...
Astronomers have detected fast-repeating radio bursts from a distant "dead" galaxy that should not contain the energy to ...
Hubble Space Telescope mapped Andromeda, revealing a chaotic history shaped by mergers. A 2.5-billion-pixel mosaic shows 200 ...
Based on what scientists thought they knew about fast radio bursts, referred to in astronomy as FRBs, this type of galaxy should not contain the kind of star long thought to produce such bursts.
The work has revealed that Andromeda is a lot more chaotic than expected. Similar to what recently retired Gaia did for the ...
The mystery of Fast Radio Bursts (FRBs) is more diverse than previously known after rapid emissions unexpectedly come from an ...
