Back in 2009, astronomers using the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope noticed that there was a lot more gamma-ray light coming from the center of the Milky Way than might otherwise be expected given the objects there. Since then, two…

Created using data from two extensive surveys, this spectacular radio image of the galactic plane of the Milky Way provides valuable insights into the birth and death of stars.

The molecules are building blocks of the chemical precursors of things such as RNA.

Under the untouched darkness of Chile's Atacama Desert, the European Southern Observatory's Very Large Telescope stands beneath an arching Milky Way.

Researchers using new simulations suggest that the Milky Way’s past collisions may have reshaped its dark matter core. This distorted structure could naturally explain the puzzling gamma-ray glow long thought to come from pulsars. The…

We don't know what started it.

Astronomers have unveiled the largest low-frequency radio color image of the Milky Way ever created, offering a sprawling, interactive cosmic panorama with unprecedented detail.

Astronomers from the International Centre of Radio Astronomy Research (ICRAR) in Australia have created a stunning new radio colour image of the Milky Way. By mapping different radio frequencies to RGB colours, the image reveals large…

Astronomers have created the most detailed low-frequency map of the Milky Way, revealing otherwise hidden stars and supernovas.

It's a masterpiece.

Astronomers from the International Centre of Radio Astronomy Research (ICRAR) have created the largest low-frequency radio colour image of the Milky Way ever assembled.

A tiny dim satellite galaxy of the Milky Way doesn't have enough stars to hold itself together. Its properties suggest that its dark matter halo is holding it together, but new research counters that. Researchers say that it's not dark…

The largest low-frequency radio colour image of the Milky Way ever assembled.

A new low-frequency radio image captures the Milky Way in unprecedented detail across multiple wavelengths, revealing its structure from the Southern Hemisphere.

Astronomers have released a spectacular new image of the Milky Way, providing a glimpse of our galaxy in unprecedented detail.

The things we can see with our eyes are just one layer of the richness of the night sky.

New observations from the James Webb Space Telescope have uncovered five complex organic molecules trapped in the ice around a star outside our galaxy. This cosmic first hints that the stuff of life may be widespread throughout space.

A new solar system-scaled public sculpture awaits visitors to San Antonio’s Pearsall Park on the southwest side of the city. Artist Doroteo Garza’s Ujuālnān (Grand Sky), commissioned by the City…
