A new cataclysmic variable system of the polar subclass has been identified by astronomers using the ROentgen SATellite (ROSAT). The system, designated ZTF J0112+5827, has been observed with an orbital…
An elliptical galaxy located 88 million light-years from Earth has been observed displaying unusual characteristics, with astronomers identifying it as a cosmic predator. The latest images captured by the Very…
detected, leaving astronomers searching for answers. The sudden burst of energy was identified while analysing archival data from NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory, revealing a cosmic event that occurred more than…
A significant breakthrough has been reported in the field of astrophysics with the identification of a vast collection of feeding black holes located in the centres of dwarf galaxies. These…
A celestial object, possibly a small star with a massive exoplanet, has been observed moving through the Milky Way at an extraordinary speed of over 1.2 million mph. The discovery…
Astronomers have detected the longest black hole-driven jet observed in the early universe, stretching at least 200,000 light-years—twice the width of the Milky Way. The discovery was made in a…
Supermassive black holes are believed to exist at the centre of most galaxies, including our Milky Way. However, in certain cases, two such black holes are thought to orbit one…
Astronomers have analysed the atmosphere of WASP-166 b, a hot super-Neptune exoplanet, revealing the presence of water and carbon dioxide. Using data from the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), the…
A celestial body found three decades ago has now been identified as a pair of brown dwarfs orbiting each other, a recent study has revealed. The object, previously known as…
Astronomers have identified brown dwarfs in the star cluster NGC 602, located in the Small Magellanic Cloud, approximately 200,000 light-years from Earth. This discovery marks the first time brown dwarfs…
