ESO Announces the Most Detailed Infrared Map of the Milky Way Ever Created

The cosmos never ceases to amaze, and the latest achievement by the European Southern Observatory (ESO) is a testament to that wonder. Astronomers have released the most detailed infrared map of the Milky Way ever created, showcasing over 1.5 billion objects within our galaxy. This remarkable endeavor spanned more than 13

Top 5 Scariest Space Facts that will leave you sleepless tonight

The universe – a concept that just hearing it evokes in us a vastness, infinity and too many unexplored gaps. Before coming to 10 scary facts about the universe, remember that we humans have only had knowledge and learned about the universe for the past few thousand years, and in

Andromeda-Galaxy

What is the Andromeda Galaxy?

You heard about the Andromeda Galaxy? It’s the closest big galaxy to our Milky Way. The Andromeda Galaxy is really far, but you can see it with your eyes! It has cool spiral arms and a giant black hole at the center. In future, it will crash into our galaxy,

milky-way

What is the Milky Way?

Welcome to our article on the Milky Way! You know, our galaxy is very big and full of stars. We will talk about how it looks, how it formed, and the star systems in it. Our Solar System is just a small part of this big galaxy. We will also

irregular galaxies

Irregular Galaxies

Today, we’re talking about irregular galaxies. These galaxies don’t have a regular shape like others. They form and change in special ways. We’ll learn how they form, grow, and create new stars. We’ll also see how scientists study them and why they’re important. By the end, you’ll know a lot

Spiral-Galaxies

Spiral Galaxies

Spiral galaxies are some of the most amazing things in space. They look like big, bright pinwheels with their spiral arms and glowing cores. You’ll learn about how these galaxies form and change over time, why dark matter is so important, and how we can see them with powerful telescopes.

All Types of Galaxies

Have you ever wondered about the different types of galaxies out there? Galaxies are like big space neighborhoods filled with stars, dust, and dark matter. In this article, I will explain to you in simple terms about spiral, elliptical, irregular, barred spiral, and lenticular galaxies. We will look at how

the largest galaxy in the universe

What is the Largest Galaxy in the Universe

Ever heard of IC 1101? It is the largest galaxy in the universe. Imagine something so big it blows your mind! IC 1101 is part of Abell 2029 galaxy cluster and is about 6 million light-years across. This giant galaxy formed through cosmic interactions and mergers over billions of years.

The largest stellar mass black hole ever discovered isn’t that far from Earth, but it’s not the closest.

In Dark Star, director John Carpenter’s debut full-length film, a sentient starship, a weird crew of astronauts, and a bomb going through a personal existential crisis are all on a mission to destroy unstable planets. It is named after the original term for what would later be called black holes. In 1783, theologian and scientist John Michell developed the concept of “dark stars,” which are stars with such strong gravitational pulls that they enviously cling to anything they come into

Astronomers have released the most detailed infrared map of the Milky Way ever created, showcasing over 1.5 billion objects within our galaxy. This remarkable endeavor spanned more than 13 years, using the powerful VISTA telescope located at ESO’s Paranal Observatory in Chile. A Journey Through the Milky Way Using an astounding 500 terabytes of data, this project marks the

Astronomers Discover the Largest Black Hole Jets Ever Recorded at 23 Million Light-Years

Astronomers have uncovered an extraordinary cosmic phenomenon: the largest twin jets ever recorded, erupting from a supermassive black hole. These massive jets stretch for an astounding 23 million light-years, far beyond the borders of their host galaxy. To put this into perspective, these jets are approximately 140 times the size of our Milky Way when lined up end to end. Their discovery has not only astonished scientists but also prompted new questions about the role such jets may have played

The universe – a concept that just hearing it evokes in us a vastness, infinity and too many unexplored gaps. Before coming to 10 scary facts about the universe, remember that we humans have only had knowledge and learned about the universe for the past few thousand years, and in that time, we only understand about 5% of the universe, including normal matter (like stars, planets and galaxies). The remaining 95% includes dark matter (27%), which we cannot see but

You heard about the Andromeda Galaxy? It’s the closest big galaxy to our Milky Way. The Andromeda Galaxy is really far, but you can see it with your eyes! It has cool spiral arms and a giant black hole at the center. In future, it will crash into our galaxy, making a new one. This article talks about these things: how far Andromeda is, what it’s made of, how to see it, and what will happen when it meets the
