One of the first observations made by NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope in June 2022 was the uncommon sight of a Wolf-Rayet star, which is one of the brightest, largest, and briefly detectable stars known.
Researchers have set out to answer questions about dark matter, neutrinos, the working of stars and what was going on in the universe during the first minutes following the Big Bang. However, a lot of skill and very sensitive detectors are required to find the answers.
Observations gathered through the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) were utilized by an international research group including Southwest Research Institute, Leiden University, and NASA. This was used to obtain the darkest-ever view of a thick interstellar cloud.
Protons make up 95% of the observable universe’s mass, and new research from physicists at the University of New Hampshire is helping us understand how they interact with one another. The findings serve as a yardstick for evaluating the strong force, one of nature’s four basic forces.
Researchers have discovered that major parts of the Milky Way’s outer disk vibrate, which has led to information about Sagittarius’ past and orbit around the galaxy.
Two UK-based companies are designing missions to clear hazardous space junk alongside the launch of a new programme to back cutting-edge space technology, the UK Space Agency has announced.

The mysterious nature of deep-space electromagnetic radio wave pulses has baffled scientists for more than 15 years, and a recently published study has added to this intregue.
A computer program that was created by a global research team can simulate the movement of cosmic rays through space. The goal is to help the researchers unravel the riddle surrounding the origins of cosmic rays.
Maser emissions, sometimes known as “cosmic lasers,” are created by amplifying stimulated emissions in the interstellar and circumstellar medium.
A new simulation run on the world's most powerful astronomy-focused supercomputer has developed a testable hypothesis to explain how the Milky Way’s bar appears.
