The Hubble Space Telescope has been used to determine the mass of white dwarf star LAWD 37. It is "56 percent the mass of our ...

ASKAP J0107–2347, located around 1.5 billion light-years away, is also remarkable because it features two sets of radio lobes ...

Scientists have discovered a few thousand planetary nebulas in the Milky Way. Those include the Ring Nebula, aka NGC 6720 and Messier 57. With Webb, the researchers could see a compact dust cloud ...

For the dwarf planet candidate, one trip around the sun takes over 24,000 years. Its orbit challenges a proposed path for a hypothetical Planet Nine.

A newly discovered gas giant, called TOI-6894b, orbiting a low-mass red dwarf star defies existing models of planet formation ...

Using the Atlas function you can search the skies for a suitable celestial body, select it from the Atlas map, and the Dwarf ...

The Milky Way may merge with the Large Magellanic Cloud in 2 billion years, not Andromeda, contrary to previous findings.

A new member of the solar system has been detected, the second-largest of its kind, suggesting there may be more like it lurking in the darkness of space. Researchers at the Institute for Advanced ...

We present a study of the central parts of the Sagittarius dwarf spheroidal galaxy (Sgr). We found a clear overdensity of Sgr's stars around M 54 (hereafter NS). NS is well represented by a King model ...

But so far, there have been only faint, sketchy hints of IMBHs residing in dwarf galaxies, and no direct evidence that they live in a galaxy like the Milky Way. In April, a team of researchers at the ...

But so far, there have been only faint, sketchy hints of IMBHs residing in dwarf galaxies, and no direct evidence that they live in a galaxy like the Milky Way. In April, a team of researchers at ...

Those galaxies can be as small as a dwarf galaxy with up to only a few billion stars, or as large as Andromeda, our nearest large galactic neighbor. The Milky Way got its name because, from our ...
