Dark matter is a mysterious substance that glues galaxies together. This map from the James Webb Space Telescope could help ...

The European Space Agency's Euclid mission—designed to map the geometry of the dark universe with unprecedented precision—continues to deliver its first scientific insights. The Euclid Consortium has ...

Euclid’s first deep-field survey has captured 26 million galaxies, some over 10 billion light-years away, offering a preview of its mission to chart a third of the sky in stunning detail. AI and ...

In the name of open science, the multinational scientific collaboration COSMOS on Thursday released the data behind the largest map of the universe. Called the COSMOS-Web field, the project, built ...

The JWST has done it again. The powerful space telescope has already revealed the presence of bright galaxies only several hundred million years after the Big Bang. Now, it's sensed light from a ...

A surprising pattern of spatial distribution was discovered in dwarf galaxies, whereby diffuse ones cluster more strongly than do compact ones — opposite to the trend seen in massive galaxies. This ...
