A celestial object some 15,000 light-years away is emitting bright flashes of radio and X-rays that scientists are struggling ...

Astronomers have discovered a mysterious new object in our Milky Way, which is emitting X-rays and radio waves at the same ...

The discovery also helps narrow down what the objects might be. Since X-rays are much higher energy than radio waves, any ...

The Keplerian design does have the ... And it's not just radio waves, astronomers have built telescopes capable of "seeing" infrared, ultraviolet, X-ray, and gamma ray light sources.

This poses a problem for gamma-ray telescopes, such as NASA's Fermi Space Telescope. Ordinary telescopes like the Hubble Space Telescope use mirrors and lenses to collect and focus light ...

Scientists are seeking answers to a new outer space mystery after a telescope in Utah detected the most powerful cosmic ray seen in more than three decades, according to the authors of new ...

NASA's budget proposal would basically axe the most powerful X-ray telescope in the world, and astronomers are scrambling to save it. NASA officials are making tough decisions as they face budget ...

Matthews, a co-spokesman for the Telescope Array Collaboration, said the two biggest recorded cosmic rays appeared “sort of random” — when their trajectories are traced back, there appears ...
