Astronomers from Bonn and Moscow Discover Extremely Rare Stellar Merger Product

Astronomers from the University of Bonn and their collaborators from Moscow have discovered a strange celestial object. It is most probably the outcome of the fusion of two stars that died a long time ago.

Researchers Discover Proto-Disk Around a Brown Dwarf for the First Time

Astronomers have found out what is called a proto-disk surrounding Mayrit, a proto-brown dwarf. This discovery allowed them to confirm, for the first time, that this celestial body was formed quite similar to sun-like stars.

Hubble’s WFC3 Reveals Right Side of Irregular Galaxy NGC 4485 Blazing with Star Formation

NGC 4485, an irregular galaxy, has exhibited all evidence of having been involved in a hit-and-run collision with a galaxy that was circumnavigating. Instead of demolishing the galaxy, the coincidental encounter is giving rise to a new generation of stars, and supposedly planets.

Strong, Asteroid-Sized Planets Have Higher Chances of Surviving the Demise of their Stars

A new study led by the University of Warwick has discovered that small, hardy planets loaded with dense elements have a higher chance of avoiding being destroyed and gobbled up when their host star dies.

Mapping Aluminum Monoxide Around Distant Star Offers Important Details About Evolution of Solar System

Aluminum monoxide (AlO) has been mapped by astronomers in a cloud surrounding a faraway young star—Origin Source I. The discovery elucidates certain vital details about the evolution of the solar system, and ultimately the humankind.

Gravitational Waves Leave Behind Memories that Could Help Detect Waves that Pass Through the Universe

Observed first in 2016, gravitational waves provide new insights about the universe, with the ability to describe everything from the time soon after the Big Bang to latest events in galaxy centers.

Study Finds First Generation of the Universe’s Stars Burst and Ejected Heavy Elements into Neighboring Galaxies

The very first stars evolved into the universe as enormously bright aggregations of helium and hydrogen gas several hundred million years following the Big Bang. Inside the cores of these first stars, extreme thermonuclear reactions produced the first heavier elements, such as iron, carbon, and zinc.

Analysis of Gaia Satellite Data Reveals Severe Star Formation Burst in Milky Way in the Past

A group headed by scientists from the Institute of Cosmos Sciences of the University of Barcelona (ICCUB, UB-IEEC) and the Besançon Astronomical Observatory analyzed data from the Gaia satellite and has discovered that an intense star formation burst took place in the Milky Way nearly two and three thousand million years ago.
