Matter makes up only about 5 percent of the universe, and about half of this matter eludes detection. So where is it?
A newly discovered exoplanet is sitting an unusual distance from its star-16 times farther than Pluto is from the sun.
Scientists have caught their first ever glimpse of a supermassive black hole eating a star. The new findings could be huge when it comes to better understanding supermassive black holes.
Scientists may have uncovered the hottest white dwarf in the galaxy. With a temperature that's a staggering 250,000 degrees Celsius, the dying star has already entered its cooling phase.
The solar system may be a lot hairier than we thought. Scientists have found that there may be long filaments, or "hairs," of dark matter around Earth and our solar system.
The comet Catalina has been spotted with both of its tails and is expected to make several appearances in the predawn sky for a few days.
Researchers have spotted a young elliptical galaxy with NASA/ESA's Hubble Space Telescope. The elliptical galaxy was identified as NGC 3610, which 80 million light years away.
In a study, researchers identified a red dwarf star that is quite stormy, where it is releasing emissions that are 10,000 times greater than what the Sun produces.
Astronomers may have spotted a baby planet being born around a young star. The new findings may reveal a bit more about planet formation outside of our own galaxy.
In a study researchers found that a large number of earth-like planets are becoming uninhabitable due to harsh amounts of radiation.
The new finding is allowing the researchers to examine the galaxies' building blocks. The researchers have manged to explore the structure, formation and the evolution of galaxies through the new finding.
Scientists are learning a bit more about our universe with the help of some ancient galaxies. New discoveries are giving astronomers a way to test theories of galaxy formation and evolution.
