For the first time, two astronomers have explained the diversity of galaxy shapes seen in the universe. The scientists, Dr Andrew Benson of the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) and Dr Nick ...
At least some evidence suggests that NGC 2775 developed its odd shape after merging with other galaxies eons ago. While not ...
The Hubble sequence six billion years ago was very different from the one astronomers see today. The two sections show how many more peculiar shaped galaxies (marked Pec) are seen among distant ...
Our neighbourhood galaxy the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) lies in the Constellation of Dorado and is sprinkled with a number of regions harbouring recent and ongoing star formation. One of these ...
Edwin Huizinga (1) ((1) STScI, (2) UCO/Lick Observatory, (3) Williams College, (4) LHEA/GSFC, (5) ESO, (6) Univ. Catolica) ...
Studying the evolution and anatomy of galaxies using the Hubble Space Telescope, an international team of astronomers led by doctoral candidate BoMee Lee and her advisor Mauro Giavalisco at the ...
The galaxy captured in this image, called UGC 12158, certainly isn’t camera-shy: this spiral stunner is posing face-on to the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope’s Advanced Camera for Surveys, revealing ...
A century ago, Edwin Hubble began the race to the edge of the cosmos Damond Benningfield In 1930, Albert Einstein met with astronomers (including Edwin Hubble, at Einstein's left, back row) at Mount ...
A century-old mystery of how galaxies change shapes has been solved by considering 'survival of the fittest' collisions between cosmic titans. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn ...
