The SMC’s low metallicity and weak gravitational structure make it a compelling analogue for the earliest galaxies in the ...

The James Webb Space Telescope reveals turbulent environments found in Sagittarius C, a core part of our Milky Way galaxy.

Scientists at Nagoya University in Japan were surprised by their study results, which they say are "indisputable." ...

A team of UNSW Sydney researchers has unlocked the "sounds" of stars to better understand their age, mass, and evolutionary ...

An analysis of star movements from the Gaia spacecraft reveals that the Small Magellanic Cloud — a satellite galaxy bound to the Milky Way — is being torn apart by its larger neighbor.

Just 200 light-years from the Milky Way's supermassive black hole, a region called Sagittarius C has puzzled astronomers.

Sagittarius C is one of the most extreme environments in the Milky Way galaxy. This cloudy region of space sits about 200 light-years from the supermassive black hole at the center of our galaxy.

The galaxy lies 11.7 billion light-years away from our corner of the cosmos, and its given nickname comes from its remarkably ...

The James Webb Space Telescope peers at Sagittarius C, a star-forming region about 200 light-years from the Milky Way's central black ... "both in our galaxy and beyond." ...

The researchers' analysis also revealed that, unlike in our Milky Way, the massive stars tracked within the SMC were not rotating around the galaxy's axis. This suggests that something may be ...
