Scientists have spotted the brightest flare yet from a supermassive black hole that shines with the light of 10 trillion suns ...

Join a talk at noon on Nov. 11 with Daniel Muthukrishna, astrophysicist and machine learning research scientist at MIT and AstroAI Fellow at Harvard on "Causal Foundation Models: Disentangling Physics ...

The experiment at CERN produced pairs of electron and positron beams, propagating into an ambient plasma. The international team of researchers found that the beams were narrow and nearly parallel, ...

Two weeks ago, interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS was at conjunction, on the opposite side of the Sun with respect to Earth. Last week, it reached perihelion, the closest point it would ever get to the Sun.

MOST is unlike any spectroscope ever built. It can unravel the light of 2,400 celestial objects simultaneously into 18,000 color components.

There are many celebrities we watch laugh out loud in front of the television, or entertain us with music and humor. What ...

A new international study has provided one of the clearest signs yet that dark matter—not a change in gravity—is responsible for the mysterious way galaxies spin. By studying some of the smallest and ...

What we do know, per the NHTSA report, is that the crash took place in a parking lot after a Robotaxi slammed into a “fixed ...

Astronomers have captured a haunting image of a “cosmic bat” spreading its wings across deep space. This nebula, 10,000 light-years away, glows crimson as newborn stars ignite clouds of gas and dust.

The most prominent clouds here are RCW 94, which represents the right wing of the bat, and RCW 95, which forms the body, while the other parts of the bat have no official designation. Credit: ...

Astronomers observe Type II supernova SN 2024bch behaving differently, with energy from Bowen fluorescence rather than ejecta interaction, challenging models of stellar death and high-energy neutrino ...

A spooky bat has been spotted flying over the European Southern Observatory's (ESO's) Paranal site in Chile, right in time ...
