NASA’s Swift satellite and Japan’s Suzaku X-ray observatory claimed to have discovered a new class of active galactic nuclei (AGN).
AGN is distinguished from common galaxies as class, most luminous in the universe, such as quasars, blazars, and...
The satellite data as observed by XMM-Newton and NASA’s Chandra X-ray had led Renato Dupke and his colleagues from the University of Michigan witness the merger of two galaxies at speed of more than 2,000 miles per second.
This collective...
According to the standard theory of star formation, stars are formed in cloudy nebulas and shortly after their birth they consume most of the gas that is present at their birthplace. The surrounding dust and gas can now be used to form...
NASA’s Swift satellite has shown two supernova events in quick succession. This is the first time that such an event has been recorded so close in time.
The blasts occurred in a galaxy called MCG +05-43-16, which is located 380 million...
A black hole is an object with a gravitational field so powerful that a region of space becomes cut off from the rest of the universe, no matter and not even light can escape these strong clutches of gravity.
Until now scientists from all over the...
There are various types of explosions in space. Do you know, when huge stars become black holes, supernovae occur? Due to specific supernovae, Gamma ray burst happens. You may also say that when two compact objects collide, such as neuron stars then...
The most intriguing question for every astronomer is that are we alone in this vast black universe…? If I were to give an answer to this question I would say No!
Considering the part of the Universe that still has to be explored by humans, we...
Scientists have successfully completed the project on the South Pole Telescope and it began operations on the evening of February 16.
The telescope was focused at Jupiter.
The telescope is a bundle of equipment that can help astronomers learn...
NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope has always provided us with some fascinating images of the Universe.
This time the Wide Field Planetary Camera 2 of the space telescope has captured the colorful demise of a Sun-Like star that is some 4,000 light...
Astronomers usually thought that the neutron stars are less bright as compared to the other main stars of the Universe.
This theory is proved wrong with the latest research done by Dr. Sylvain Chaty of the University Paris 7.
The research...
Astronomers at the SRON Netherlands Institute for Space Research have made observations with the ESA’s XMM-Newton X-Ray observatory and have concluded that our Universe is 1.5 times richer in than previously expected.
Our body elements that...
When we talk about the universe we are talking about 94% of it that we have not been able to see and analyze.
We don’t know what all the secrets of the universe may hold for the mankind. There are new theories that are made by the astronomers...
