Our universe's oldest galaxies were hot messes

A new study used the James Webb Space Telescope to study how our universe's first galaxies were.

Satellites

A satellite is an object that orbits a celestial body, such as a planet. Satellites can be either natural (like the Moon orbiting Earth) or artificial (human-made). When discussing space technology, the term "satellite" usually refers to artificial satellites. These human-made devices are launched into space to perform various tasks, ranging from communication and navigation to scientific observation and military intelligence.

What's it like to live inside a void?

The cosmic voids of the universe are empty of matter. But we all know there’s more to the universe than just matter. Nothing in this universe is completely empty, and that’s because there’s always your constant companions. Me? No, not me, I only visit once a month.

Unistellar is offering 20% across its entire range of smart telescopes in November for Black Friday

Unistellar is cutting 20% off all of its smart telescopes and accessories, including the Odyssey Pro and the eQuinox 2 for the whole month of November, ahead of Black Friday on Nov. 28.

Magnetic Forces Funnel Gas And Dust Into Young Stars

Star formation has a lot of complex physics that feed into it. Classical models used something equivalent to a “collapse” of a cloud of gas by gravity, with a star being birthed in the middle. More modern understandings show a feature called a “streamer”, which funnels gas and dust to proto-stars from the surrounding disc of material. But our understanding of those streamers is still in its early stages, like the stars they are forming. So a new paper published in Astrophysical Journal Letters by Pablo Cortes of the National Radio Astronomy Observatory (NRAO) and his co-authors is a welcome addition to the literature - and it shows a unique feature of the process for the first time.

Space exploration in the backyard, on a budget – how NASA simulates conditions in space without blasting off

You may have heard about the extensive testing facilities for spacecraft and equipment, but how do scientists prepare for the human aspect of space exploration?

Modeling Black Holes Is Easier With A Flicker Of Light

A few days ago, I wrote about non-singular black hole models, specifically one known as the Hayward model. Since its introduction in 2006, several variations of the Hayward model have been introduced, including a rotating model similar to the Kerr metric used to study the supermassive black holes we've observed directly. This raises an interesting question: what if we use a rotating Hayward model instead of the usual Kerr model? A recent study answers that question.

Scientists discover oldest air on record trapped in 6-million-year-old Antarctic ice

Scientists working with the Center for Oldest Ice Exploration (COLDEX) have collected the oldest directly dated ice cores ever drilled: 6 million years old.

We Could Use Neutrino Detectors As Giant Particle Colliders

There is a limit to how big we can build particle colliders on Earth, whether that is because of limited space or limited economics. Since size is equivalent to energy output for particle colliders, that also means there’s a limit to how energetic we can make them. And again, since high energies are required to test theories that go Beyond the Standard Model (BSM) of particle physics, that means we will be limited in our ability to validate those theories until we build a collider big enough. But a team of scientists led by Yang Bai at the University of Wisconsin thinks they might have a better idea - use already existing neutrino detectors as a large scale particle collider that can reach energies way beyond what the LHC is capable of.
