Two colliding galaxies have been found to be reorganizing their dwarf satellites, potentially solving a major conundrum ...

If even a few of these objects turn out to be what we think they are, our discovery could challenge current ideas about how galaxies formed in the early universe,” said Haojing Yan, a University of ...

Hertz Tiered Extragalactic Exploration (MIGHTEE-HI) survey, astronomers have discovered a new rotating galaxy filament. The ...

Images taken with the MIRI infrared camera on the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) have made it possible to observe the ...

The formation of galaxies in the universe should follow a fairly simple path. It starts with small galaxies, which then grow bigger and bigger until they become the giant galaxies we see in the modern ...

Astronomers using NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope have stumbled upon a puzzling population of galaxies that look far too ...

Only a fraction of the size of the Milky Way, these galaxies have thus far been too faint for most telescopes to spot.

The image reveals over 2,500 galaxies, many of which are seen as they were during the first billion years of cosmic history.

Astronomers have studied the merger of galaxies NGC 5713 and NGC 5719 to understand the future collision between the Milky ...

Astronomers searching for some of the universe’s first galaxies have uncovered a surprising case of mistaken identity.

“These mysterious objects are candidate galaxies in the early universe, meaning they could be very early galaxies,” said ...
