To understand how young stars affect galactic evolution, researchers studied 18,000 star-forming regions in nearby spiral ...
Massive stars much bigger than our sun always come in pairs or groups, not alone. But astronomers don't fully understand how these groupings form. In a new study, astronomers using ALMA have ...
How do stars form? Scientists know that stars are born when huge clouds of cold gas in space collapse under their own gravity ...
Just a few hundred million years after the Big Bang, the universe was a dark and simple place. There were no galaxies like ...
This gas led to the formation of stars and expansion of galaxies during the early stages of the Universe. A new study by an ...
Scientists have uncovered the true boundary of the Milky Way’s star-forming region using stellar “age mapping.” They found a telltale U-shaped pattern showing that star formation drops sharply around ...
A new set of supercomputer simulations published June 5, 2026 in Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society has provided the most quantitatively precise confirmation yet of why binary star ...
A distant star system with four super-sized gas giants has revealed a surprise. Thanks to JWST’s powerful vision, astronomers detected sulfur in their atmospheres — a chemical clue that they formed ...
Scientists working with the James Webb Space Telescope discovered three unusual astronomical objects in early 2025, which may be examples of dark stars. The concept of dark stars has existed for some ...
