Everything about the Infinity Galaxy, recently discovered by the JWST, is strange. One odd feature could be the 1st evidence ...

The Andromeda Galaxy, located 2.5 million light years away, has fascinated observers for centuries. Once believed to be part ...

World's largest digital camera observes cosmos, capturing detailed images of galaxies, asteroids, and stars changing ...

Dwarf galaxies often appear to align mysteriously around their host galaxies. A new study proposes an unprecedented explanation. Galaxies like the Milky Way are surrounded by dozens of dwarf galaxies, ...

One possible channel for the formation of dwarf galaxies involves birth in the tidal tails of interacting galaxies. We report the detection of a bright UV tidal tail and several young tidal dwarf ...

Galaxies that host tidal debris are also systematically bluer than the average galaxy at fixed stellar mass. These findings extend the observed dwarf dwarf merger sequence with a significant sample of ...

Using the Hubble Space Telescope, astronomers have, for the first time, directly detected the merger of star clusters at the heart of dwarf galaxies.

"This work highlights Euclid’s remarkable ability to detect and characterize dwarf galaxies, enabling a comprehensive view of galaxy formation and evolution across diverse mass scales, distances ...

Astronomers have identified a rare phenomenon involving five dwarf galaxies positioned in a near-linear arrangement, resembling a cosmic string of pearls. Located approximately 117 million light-years ...

Moons are locked in orbit around planets. Planets, asteroids and comets orbit more massive stars, and stars collect around supermassive black holes, forming galaxies. Large galaxies, like the Milky ...

A pair of new Hubble images show small dwarf galaxies, one of which is thought to be the result of a historical merger.
