  • Hunting for 'wandering' black holes in dwarf galaxies

    Tracking down black holes at the center of dwarf galaxies has proven difficult. In part it is because they have a tendency to "wander" and are not located at the galaxy's center. There are plenty of galaxies that might contain such a black hole, but so far we've had insufficient data to confirm their existence.

  • NASA Cassini Study Finds Organics ‘Fresh’ From Ocean of Enceladus

    Researchers dove deep into information gathered from the ice grains that were collected during a close and super-fast flyby through a plume of Saturn’s icy moon. A new analysis of data from NASA’s Cassini mission found evidence of previously undetected organic compounds in a plume of ice particles ejected from the ocean that lies under […]

  • Webb First to Show 4 Dust Shells ‘Spiraling’ Apep, Limits Long Orbit

    NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope has delivered a first of its kind: a crisp mid-infrared image of a system of four serpentine spirals of dust, one expanding beyond the next in precisely the same pattern. (The fourth is almost transparent, at the edges of Webb’s image.) Observations taken prior to Webb only detected one shell, […]

  • Webb witnesses a feasting supermassive black hole in the early universe

    Researchers using the NASA/ESA/CSA James Webb Space Telescope have confirmed an actively growing supermassive black hole within a galaxy just 570 million years after the Big Bang. Part of a class of small, very distant galaxies that have mystified astronomers, CANUCS-LRD-z8.6 represents a vital piece of this puzzle that challenges existing theories about the formation of galaxies and black holes in the early universe. The discovery connects early black holes with the luminous quasars we observe today.

  • The Andromeda galaxy quenches its satellite galaxies long before they fall in

    Astronomers know that mergers play a huge role in galaxy growth. Right now, the Milky Way is slowly consuming the Large and Small Magellanic Clouds. The evidence is a stream of gas called the Magellanic Stream that's about 600,000 light-years long. The Milky Way (MW) is stripping this gas from the clouds, which don't have enough mass to retain it. They're losing the gravitational tug-of-war with the much more massive MW.
