Astronomers just completed the largest radio survey of the universe ever, revealing 13.7 million previously hidden cosmic wonders including black hole jets, colliding galaxies, and exploding stars. The breakthrough could transform our understanding of how supermassive black holes shape entire galaxies.
Astronomers discovered an almost invisible galaxy made nearly entirely of dark matter, using a clever new technique that tracks ancient star clusters instead of searching for starlight. The finding opens new doors to understanding the mysterious substance that makes up most of our universe.
The James Webb Space Telescope discovered an unexpectedly rich mix of carbon molecules in a distant galaxy's dusty core, including a highly reactive compound never before seen outside the Milky Way. The finding reveals that hidden galaxy centers are chemically alive, constantly breaking down and rebuilding carbon in ways scientists hadn't predicted.
