A study found the new origin of supermassive black holes
A new study set out to disclose a new theory of the origin of the black holes. Astrophysicists at Tohoku University conducted computer simulations...
Snowflakes in space?
NGC 6441 is a 13-billion-year-old collection of galaxies existing in the southern constellation of Scorpius. It lies some 44,000 light-years away from Earth and 13,000 light-years from...
Astronomers measured the shape of the magnetic field of the solar corona
The Sun's corona is the outermost part of the Sun's atmosphere. And he stream of energized, charged particles, primarily electrons, and protons, flowing outward...
Experiencing 500 years of cosmic evolution around Milky Way’s black hole
NASA scientists have created a new visualization called 'Galactic Center VR' that lets you experience 500 years of cosmic evolution around the supermassive black...
Mars once had a ring billions of years ago
Mars, the fourth planet in our solar system, is the most widely searched planet for life. Like Saturn, Mars does not have any rings,...
How the first stars transformed the Universe?
New results from the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope suggest the formation of the first stars and galaxies in the early Universe took place sooner...
Closest young brown dwarf disk spotted
A brown dwarf is a substellar object with a mass between those of the heaviest gas giant planets and the least massive stars. They...
Magnetic field controls the material’s movement around the black hole
Using observational data from the Stratospheric Observatory for Infrared Astronomy (SOFIA), astronomers recently discovered that the magnetic field near our galaxy's core is so...
Milky Way’s black hole unleashed enormous outburst about 3.5 million years ago
A supermassive black hole in the center of the Milky Way galaxy exploded an enormous outburst almost 3.5 million years ago. The black hole,...
Astronomers found the exact location of four fast radio bursts
Fast Radio Bursts are very mysterious bursts of radio waves, coming from all over the sky. In just a millisecond, a single burst releases...
The halo surrounding the Milky Way is much hotter than previously thought
The outer "halo" region of the Milky Way, as with other galaxies, contains the vast majority of the mass of the Galaxy. Yet the...
Classical novae are responsible for most of the lithium in our galaxy
Lithium and its compounds have several industrial applications, including heat-resistant glass and ceramics, lithium grease lubricants, batteries, and mood-altering chemicals.
However, scientists are curious to...
