Astronomers previously thought all FRBs were generated by magnetars formed through the explosions of very young, massive stars. But new FRB is pinpointed to the outskirts of 11.3-billion-year-old galaxy without young,

These FRBs, named FRB 20240209A, are located outside of the massive ancient elliptical galaxy it is associated with that only contains old and dead stars, Shah said. Using the James Webb Space ...

New research suggests that a massive, unidentified object might have passed through our Solar System billions of years ago, leaving a lasting imprint on the orbits of our planets. This intriguing hypothesis,

For the first time, astronomers have traced a fast radio burst (FRB) to the outskirts of an ancient, dead, elliptical galaxy—an unprecedented home for a phenomenon previously associated with ...

Scientists found an intriguing world in our galaxy.

The discovery of a planet that is just 20 light-years away has been said to be the closest Earth analogue that scientists have ever uncovered.

For millennia, humans have asked whether we are alone in the universe, yet the discovery of aliens still eludes us. But if extraterrestrials do exist, scientists have found a promising location for where they could be hiding.

Exoplanets have captured the imagination of the public and scientists alike and as the search continues for more, researchers have turned their attention to the evolution of metallicity in the Milky Way.

Huge breakthrough in the search for aliens: NASA discovers a 'super Earth' exoplanet just 20 light-years away that could have the right conditions to support life For millennia, humans have asked whether we are alone in the universe, yet the discovery of aliens still eludes us.

This rare quasar with spiral arms could help astronomers understand how supermassive black holes feed and grow.

Pinpointing a Milepost Marker Star that Opened the Realm of Galaxies At the dawn of the 20th century, astronomers faced a cosmic puzzle. The night sky was dotted with more than 100 nebulous objects cataloged in the late 1700s by French astronomer Charles Messier.
