Hubble revealed a universe of galaxies that existed beyond ours — but he couldn't have done it without a little help.

we obtained a significantly larger 'size' (defined as the half-light radius) for the Milky Way than that expected," the researchers wrote in the paper. The Milky Way is a barred spiral galaxy with ...

High radiation during a time of frenzied star formation in the Milky Way left one stellar population with few chances to form planets, a study reports.

Recently, a team of astronomers made an extraordinary discovery: a new giant radio galaxy (GRG) named Inkathazo, detected using the MeerKAT telescope located in South Africa. This cosmic structure, ...

But around the cosmic time that we are seeing the Firefly Sparkle, Milky Way-like galaxy progenitors were about 10,000 times less massive than today’s Milky Way. Hopefully with the collaboration ...

The Milky Way and thousands of other galaxies are drawn to "something": We have no idea what it is. The Great Attractor is a ...
