2024 was a year of remarkable achievements for NASA, marked by groundbreaking missions, scientific discoveries, technological advancements and continued space exploration. As we prepare for 2025, the agency continues to push the boundaries of human exploration and knowledge.
In a recent study by University of Florida astronomer Adam Ginsburg, researchers have used the James Webb telescope (JWST) to uncover the mysterious dark region at the centre of our Milky Way galaxy, named "The Brick".
University of Michigan researchers have unveiled a cosmic phenomenon in dwarf galaxies, shedding light on their stellar productivity. Dwarf galaxies, less evolved than their massive counterparts, boast expansive star-forming regions and higher star formation rates.
In a groundbreaking study, astronomers led by Carnegie's Gwen Rudie and Northwestern University's Allison Strom uncovered unprecedented details about "teenage galaxies" that formed just 2 to 3 billion years after the Big Bang.
Scientists at Cornell University suggest that by examining Earth's Phanerozoic era, telescopes could improve the detection of potential signs of life on exoplanets.
The James Webb telescope, operated by NASA, recently observed the Crab Nebula, a remnant of a supernova explosion situated 6,500 light-years away in the Taurus constellation.
The James Webb Space Telescope, operated by NASA, has made a groundbreaking observation within Jupiter’s atmosphere, unveiling a previously undiscovered phenomenon.
Rochester Institute of Technology scientists are redefining our understanding of the cosmos and the brilliant galaxies of the early universe using data from the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST).
James Webb's Space Telescope (JWST) is now studying one of the most renowned supernovae, SN 1987A (Supernova 1987A), located 168,000 light-years away in the Large Magellanic Cloud.
Challenging the current cosmological model, a new study published in the Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society suggests that the age of universe may be nearly twice as old.
The Euclid Space Telescope, aimed at unraveling the mysteries of the Universe, has been launched aboard a SpaceX Falcon 9 spacecraft from Florida's Cape Canaveral.
The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), in collaboration with NASA, the European Space Agency, and the Canadian Space Agency, is conducting research into early star formation in galaxies.
Using NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope to look at a rocky exoplanet known as GJ 486 b, researchers find signs of water vapour – hinting at an atmosphere.
