"Red monsters" in space: why these ancient galaxies shatter scientists" beliefs
1+ hour, 40+ min ago (992+ words) In the standard picture of galaxy formation, large halos of dark matter form first. Their gravity pulls in ordinary matter, mostly gas, which can then cool, collapse, and form stars. But this process is not supposed to be perfectly efficient....
These ancient quasars shouldn't exist so soon after the Big Bang
2+ hour, 2+ min ago (976+ words) Quasars rank among the brightest and most powerful objects in the universe. They are fueled by supermassive black holes that consume surrounding material at the centers of galaxies, producing so much energy that they can be seen across billions of…...
NASA telescope discovers new 'super-Jupiter' exoplanet nearly 40, 000 light-years from Earth - AOL
14+ hour, 50+ min ago (535+ words) NASA's TESS (Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite) identified a large new exoplanet orbiting far from its host star thanks to ripples in the space-time continuum." The newly discovered planet is 1. 6 times the size of Jupiter and called Gaia23bra b. It was initially identified…...
Astronomers scrutinize exoplanet that survived the death of its star
4+ hour, 10+ min ago (666+ words) WASHINGTON, July 9 (Reuters) " In about 5 billion years, our sun will begin its death throes by expanding in size and engulfing the innermost planets " possibly including Earth " before expelling its outer layers and forming a stellar remnant called a white dwarf....
Young giant gas planet Beta Pic B refuses to reveal its origin
5+ hour, 2+ min ago (351+ words) Results cast doubt on a seemingly reliable tool for inferring the origins of gas planets This artist's impression shows how the planet inside the disc of Beta Pictoris may look. However, at a range of about 10 au (astronomical unit = the…...
Ancient quasars add to a "major unsolved problem" in astrophysics
16+ hour, 6+ min ago (706+ words) WASHINGTON, July 8 (Reuters) " A quasar " among the universe's most luminous and energetic objects " is a supermassive black hole caught in the act of guzzling matter at the heart of a galaxy. Scientists have now found quasars dating to so early…...
In November 2025, UC Irvine astronomers announced a rocky super-Earth called GJ 251 c orbiting in a habitable zone less than 20 light-years away " close enough that the next generation of ground-based telescopes may actually photograph it directly
9+ hour, 45+ min ago (1035+ words) Published July 9, 2026 GJ 251 c is the kind of planet astronomers have been trying to find for decades: nearby, relatively small, in a temperate orbit, and separated from its star just enough that future telescopes may not have to infer its…...
ASU astronomers reveal how clouds shape hidden interiors of galaxy's most common planets
21+ hour, 16+ min ago (316+ words) Using detailed computer models, Mukherjee and the research team found that clouds composed of vaporized rocks and salts can form deep down in the atmospheres of sub-Neptunes. Once there, they act like a thermal blanket, trapping heat trying to escape…...
Dark patterns, Gaia23bra b and analysing Mozen by Amkette Qi2 chargers
10+ hour, 45+ min ago (494+ words) The super-Jupiter is 1. 6 times Jupiter's mass and a similar orbital distance, and it is said that discovery would be extremely unlikely for such a planet via the primary detection method TESS was designed for. Interestingly, Gaia23bra b was first potentially alerted…...
7, 000 Galaxy Clusters, Hiding in Plain Sight
13+ hour, 32+ min ago (69+ words) A five year survey by the South Pole Telescope has produced a catalogue of more than seven thousand galaxy clusters, some dating back nearly eight billion years, giving astronomers their most detailed map yet of the universe's largest structures. Hidden…...
