Supermassive black holes, 1,000 times larger than previously thought, have been discovered in LRD-type galaxies. This discovery could change our understanding of the early universe. Researchers using ...

A massive coronal hole has opened on the sun, sending high-speed solar wind toward Earth and increasing aurora activity.

Researchers found for the first time evidence that even microquasars containing a low-mass star are efficient particle accelerators, which leads to a significant impact on the interpretation of the ...

After decades of study, scientists sound genuinely optimistic about the possibility of detecting primordial black holes, which might explain dark matter.

Our home planet is bombarded with particles from outer space all the time. And while we are mostly familiar with the rocky ...
