Dr Themiya Nanayakkara at Swinburne University has made a surprising space discovery – a giant spiral disk galaxy in the early cosmos which is three times larger than similar galaxies at the same epoch.
Two new stars have been found dancing near the Milky Way’s supermassive black hole, according to international researchers, who say the binary star system was predicted to be there but has escaped detection until now.
A new paper published in Nature has revealed an international team has identified three ultra-massive galaxies – nearly as massive as the Milky Way – already in place within the first billion years after the Big Bang.
Detailed observations of a low-mass galaxy known as Firefly Sparkle that formed when the Universe was around 600 million years old provides insights into early galaxy formation, according to international researchers.
Australian scientists have released data from a massive stellar mapping survey that’s analysed nearly 1 million stars in the Milky Way.
A shroud of gas stretches up to a million light years around every galaxy and is its first interaction with the wider Universe beyond.
The world’s most sensitive detector sets new limits for finding weakly interacting massive particles or WIMPs
A longstanding ‘conspiracy’ in astronomy – that stars and dark matter are interacting in inexplicable ways – has been overturned.
This concludes more than 10 years of its planetary defense mission
An international team of astronomers has used NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope to produce the highest-resolution image of spectacular exploding stars ever seen.
An international team led by Australian research centre ASTRO 3D reports that age is the driving force in changing how stars move within galaxies.
The first trial of an Australian-developed technology has detected mysterious objects by sifting through signals from space like sand on a beach.
Rock and dust samples brought back from the near-Earth asteroid Bennu contain organic matter, including amino acids and all five DNA and RNA bases, as well as salts that formed early in the history of Bennu’s parent body, according to a pair of studies by international and Australian researchers.
The Schrödinger impact basin is an area of the moon that contains two gigantic canyons – that are definitely there whether you look at it or not – and international researchers say they might have found out how these huge valleys were formed.
Dust on the moon could one day be used to build solar panels, according to researchers who say this could allow astronauts to access power on the moon without carting heavy equipment from Earth.
They say music is the universal language of humankind, but some stars in our galaxy exhibit their own rhythm, offering fresh clues into how they and our galaxy evolved over time.
Miso made in space has a nuttier, more roasted flavour than miso made on solid ground, according to international researchers, who sent a small container of fermenting soybeans and salt, the ingredients for the traditional Japanese condiment, to the International Space Station.
