Euclid, a European space telescope, just captured 26 million galaxies to reveal the secrets of the dark universe. The Euclid Space Telescope is focused on surveying about one-third of the night ...

The next year of science on the James Webb Space Telescope has been announced amid mounting budgetary uncertainty that could ...

Taken by Jason Kalirai, this is an image of a dying star with dust and gas expelled during its final stages. Photographed by Zoltan Levay, this barred spiral galaxy shines in wonderful colors, as ...

Get Instant Summarized Text (Gist) Galaxies have been found to stop forming stars as early as 700 million years after the Big Bang, earlier than theoretical models predicted. The James Webb Space ...

The survey data, released March 19, includes initial scans of three regions that Euclid will observe regularly, as well as detailed classifications of more than 380,000 galaxies — a mere 0.4% of ...

Observations from NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope showed that more galaxies rotate in one direction than the other. According to one researcher, this could mean that the universe is actually ...

Now new images have shown that around two-thirds of 263 galaxies imaged by Webb rotate in the opposite direction to our Milky Way galaxy. It had been expected that the number of galaxies rotating ...

Spiral galaxies imaged by JWST that rotate in the same direction relative to the Milky Way (red) and in the opposite direction relative to the Milky Way (blue). The number of galaxies rotating in ...

Galaxies like the Milky Way boast more than spirals; they also have feathers, where clumps of new stars are born. Astronomers have been stumped by how these complex structures form, but now a ...

Here, hundreds of thousands of galaxies in different shapes and sizes take center stage and show a glimpse of their large-scale organization in the cosmic web. On 19 March 2025, the European Space ...

Extraordinary images from the Euclid space telescope have captured 26 million galaxies, some as far off as 10.5 billion light years. Euclid was launched by the European Space Agency (ESA ...
