The new measurements suggest the galaxy may have formed billions of years after the big bang-much later than other galaxies close to ours."Pretty much every galaxy in the nearby universe has very, very old stars dating back to shortly after the big bang," says Gagandeep Anand, an ...
Since the SMC is the most metal-poor galaxy observable with very high angular resolution, this work may provide valuable templates for addressing issues of star formation in the very distant metal-poor galaxies of the early Universe.doi:10.48550/arXiv.astro-ph/0109034HeydariMalayeri, M...
Astronomers using theAtacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array(ALMA) to study planet formation have made the first-ever detection of gas in a circumplanetary disk. What’s more, the detection also suggests the presence of a very youngexoplanet. The results of the research were published on ...
In the present talk, we focus on emission line galaxies at z < 1. The Hβ luminosity functions and the star formation density of such galaxies are 5-10% of the values fuond from UV continuum objects at z = 0 - 1, suggesting that they are common at z < 1. Many of these galaxies...
And there is more. Not only is this pulsar the youngest of the 3000 known in ourMilky Waygalaxy, but it also belongs to a very rare category of pulsars: magnetars, the cosmic objects with the strongest magnetic fields ever measured in the Universe. ...

In any case, Keli Quintela's time alone in the dark forced her to confront her own fears in a big way, something that every Lantern must do in order to truly serve and protect the galaxy with the light of willpower. Now, she's ready to venture forth and embrace her destiny as a...
Additionally, the uniform peak brightness of SNe allows for precise distance calculations to remote points in the universe; these distance calculations lend themselves to more precise estimations of the scale of the universe. There have not been any recent observations of SNe Ia in our galaxy, but...
Astronomers have discovered the smallest black hole ever to exist in the history of the universe. The black hole could help scientists better understand how massive stars explode, which ones leave behind black holes or neutron stars, and the number of black holes in our galaxy and others. The...
UsingNASA’s Chandra X-ray Observatory and the NSF’s Jansky Very Large Array, astronomers have determined the likely trigger for the most recent supernova in theMilky Way. Astronomers had previously identified G1.9+0.3 as the remnant of the most recent supernova in our Galaxy. It is estimate...
