A Lyman-Leaking Galaxy Merger Confirmed with JWST
When two galaxies collide, they spark new star formation that can emit tons of powerful radiation. A recent study observes such a system and connects this process to the reionization of the universe.
What do the latest JWST data say about the notable ultra-hot Jupiter WASP-121b?
A Seriously Dusty Supernova
A supernova discovered in 2010 appears to have created tens of thousands of Earth masses of dust.
Astrobites reports on whether the correlation between galactic radio, infrared, and gamma-ray emission is truly a sign that cosmic-ray electrons deposit all their energy before they can escape to intergalactic space.
Finishing Off an Asteroid
Astronomers may have spotted the crumbs of a recently eaten asteroid around a white dwarf star.
Using fast radio bursts, researchers have measured just how empty cosmic voids truly are.
Astrobites reports on a whodunit of cosmic significance: who killed star formation in massive elliptical galaxies?
Citizen scientists from the Dynamic Eclipse Broadcast Initiative recorded nearly an hour of coronal behavior during the 8 April 2024 solar eclipse.
Spying on a Split Comet
A recent study investigated the possible mechanisms that caused a known Jupiter-family comet to split in two.
