In this incredible image, we can see the unrestrained energy of two young stars about 650 light-years away as their energetic jets create a distinct hourglass shape with clumps and swirls of gas and dust.
A galaxy called GLIMPSE-16403, is by no means confirmed as a Population III host. But the identification of even a candidate suggests that it's only a matter of time before we finally locate the first stars in the Universe.
Ultrahigh Energy Cosmic Rays are the highest-energy particles in the universe, whose energies are more than a million times what can be achieved by humans.
This new image of the protostar HH30 is in amazing new detail thanks to the JWST. The image shows the protoplanetary disk seen edge on, with a conical outflow of gas and dust, with a narrow jet blasting out into space.
A new study argues that Pop III stars flooded the cosmos with water. Based on this, by 100 to 200 million years after the Big Bang, there could have been enough water and other elements in molecular clouds for life to form.
Astronomers at the University of Sydney have found the slowest rotating pulsar yet found, a 'cosmic lighthouse' that spins once every 6.5 hours, pushing the boundaries of what was thought possible.
Taking advantage of a cosmic "double lens," astronomers resolved more than 40 individual stars in a galaxy so far away its light dates back to when the universe was only half its present age.
When a magnetar within the Milky Way galaxy belched out a flare of colossally powerful radio waves in 2020, scientists finally had concrete evidence to pin down an origin for fast radio bursts.
A strange star has revealed to astronomers a mysterious past - one that involves the merger of two ancient suns.
The discovery helps explain a long-running cosmic mystery about why some stars hurtle through space much faster than others.
For the first time, we have succeeded in taking a zoomed-in image of a dying star in a galaxy outside our own Milky Way. The star WOH G64 is located a staggering 160 000 light-years from us.
In recent years, astronomers have developed techniques to measure the metal content of stars with extreme accuracy.
It appears that sometimes stars fail to explode as supernovae and instead turn directly into black holes.
In August 2017, humanity observed a wonder. For the first time, we got to see two neutron stars colliding.
In the binary system 4U 1820-30, a neutron star is spinning so fast around its center axis that it completes a breathtaking 716 rotations per second.
