With new technologies come new opportunities. And that is especially true in astronomy—with every new advanced telescope, we ...

A powerful black hole collision has opened a new chapter in space science. Scientists used the loudest gravitational wave signal ever detected to study the hidden region near an event horizon. This ...

An intense demolition derby of at least six galaxies smashing into one another has been found lurking in the early universe by the James Webb Space Telescope.

Black holes are some of the most mysterious objects in the universe, but they aren’t always silent. When two black holes are close enough to each other, they spiral towards one another, eventually ...

Researchers have developed a compact, low-cost convolutional spectrometer that delivers lab-grade precision for applications ...

Astronomers have released the largest gravitational wave catalog ever, revealing 161 new black hole collisions and pushing the total number of detections to 390. Among the highlights are the clearest ...
