NASA recently spotted the vibrant colors that make up the "cosmic wreath," a swarm of stars and dust on the outskirts of the Small Magellanic Cloud, one of the closest galaxies to the Milky Way ...
WHL0137-LS, also known as Earendel, is a star located in the constellation of Cetus.Discovered in 2022 by the Hubble Space Telescope, it is the earliest and most distant known star, at a comoving distance of 28 billion light-years (8.6 billion parsecs).
JADES-GS-z14-0 is a high-redshift Lyman-Break galaxy in the constellation Fornax that was discovered in 2024 using NIRcam as part of the JWST Advanced Deep Extragalactic Survey (JADES) program. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] It has a redshift of 14.32, making it the most distant galaxy and astronomical object ever discovered.
The team studied Leo P using NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope, which imaged the dwarf galaxy with the instrument's Near-Infrared Camera, or NIRCam. ... and then a new round of star formation ...
NASA’s Lucy spacecraft has got a new target in its sights. New photos have emerged of a small asteroid named Donaldjohanson. Images show the perceived motion of the asteroid. The Lucy spacecraft ...
The two innermost exoplanets orbiting HD 110067, a bright K0-type star, were first detected by the TESS space telescope, using the transit method, in 2020. The remaining four exoplanets were later confirmed in 2023 as a result of additional observations using the CHEOPS ( European Space Agency ) space telescope.
