An extremely slow pulsar has made scientists “slow down” their assumptions about other pulsars. The pace could be caused by a ...

Boson stars, invisible celestial objects theorised to form from axions, are now at the centre of dark matter research. Axions, light and wave-like bosons, may cluster under gravity, forming these ...

For budding astronomers and space experts, telescopes bridge the gap between them and space. To take your love of the planets ...

The York County Astronomical Society will offer a public starwatch 7-9 p.m. Saturday at their Observatory at John Rudy County ...

An unidentified interstellar object, possibly eight times Jupiter’s mass, may have disrupted the solar system’s planets.

A cosmic object spotted by the James Webb Space Telescope has flummoxed astronomers. Now, a research team has studied ...

Chiron, discovered in 1977, stands out for its cometary activity and the potential presence of rings of material. These characteristics make it a privileged object of study to understand the ...

We can't help ourselves but wonder about life elsewhere in the universe. Any hint of a biosignature or even a faint, ...

From decades of astronomical observations, scientists know that most galaxies contain massive black holes at their centers.

AJ0, therefore, offered scientists a tantalizing opportunity. Not only is this the slowest pulsar-like object ever found, but it emits alternating blasts that scientists first believed to have ...

Centaurs, these objects orbiting between Jupiter and Neptune, exhibit traits of both asteroids and comets. (2060) Chiron, in particular, has been studied by a team from the University of Central ...
