This is how the Solar System travels around the center of the galaxy, taking 225 million to 250 million years for a full orbit.

PHYSICS IS BROKEN AGAIN—ORGANIC SUPERCONDUCTORS MAKE WAVES! Imagine taking something made of carbon and hydrogen—basically fancy plastic—and making it do things even metals can't. That’s what scientists just pulled off with a weird twisty material that acts like a

Using a groundbreaking new technique, researchers have unveiled the first detailed image of a photon — a single particle of light — ever taken. [Exact Quantum Electrodynamics of Radiative Photonic Environments, Ben Yuen and Angela Demetriadou, 2024, Physical Review Letters]

How Far Are Galaxies From The Milky Way?

It takes 230 million years to our Solar System to orbit the galaxy's center. Dinosaurs roamed one galactic year ago; human showed up just 0.001 galactic years back!😮 A Galactic Year = 230 Million Earth Years

Astronomers have discovered that planet formation is occurring in the heart of the Milky Way, a region previously considered too chaotic for such processes. Using the ALMA Observatory📡, an international team conducted a detailed survey of three molecular clouds in the Central Molecular

Astronomers at the University of California, UC Berkeley , have identified a rare cosmic event: a massive black hole, ~ one million times the mass of our Sun, devouring a star about 2,600 light-years from the center of its host galaxy. This phenomenon, known as a tidal disruption

Rotation speed of galaxies.

The #JWST has identified the most distant galaxy ever observed, named MoM-z14, dating back to just 280 million years after the Big Bang. This discovery pushes the boundaries of our understanding of the early universe and challenges existing theories of galaxy formation.

Is the Big Bang the beginning—or just a phase? ✍️

Let’s take a trip to Andromeda – 2.5 million light-years away. Only, for this trip we’ll be using a light-speed spaceship. Buckle up! As we accelerate and approach the speed of light, one of the most mind-boggling phenomena in physics takes place; time dilation. To an observer

What Are Black Holes? Black holes are regions in space where gravity is so intense that nothing, not even light, can escape. They form when massive stars collapse under their own gravity, compressing matter into an incredibly dense point. Quick Facts. Closest Known Black Hole:

BREAKING🚨: Astronomers have discovered the universe’s largest water reservoir, 140 trillion times the water in Earth's oceans, found near a supermassive black hole

defended my thesis and officially have a PhD in Astrophysics 🥹🥹 5 years of hard work, dedication and lots of support from my advisor and the department 🫶 so grateful for what’s been and what’s to come

Scientists believe that the Milky Way is not only flying at 600 km/s, but also “flapping its wings”. In this image taken with the European Southern Observatory’s Very Large Telescope, the butterfly-shaped nebula NGC 2899 appears to float in the vacuum of space. But this cosmic

What are gravitational waves and why they matter. When massive objects like black holes or neutron stars move or collide, they generate minute distortions, gravitational waves, that propagate across the universe. Detection by LIGO: Gravitational-wave Observatory uses an

NASA’s Voyager spacecraft revealed a remarkable discovery at the edge of our solar system: a vast region of superheated plasma, reaching temperatures between 30,000 and 50,000 Kelvin. This area, encountered by both Voyager 1 and Voyager 2 as they crossed the heliopause, the

How does a galaxy bend light?
