The Wonders of the Universe: Exploring Space and Beyond

Join us on an awe-inspiring journey through the cosmos. Explore the wonders of space, from distant galaxies to the mysteries of our own solar system. Discover the latest in astronomical research and space exploration.

Supermassive Black Holes

27 Aug 2021

Indian researchers discover 3 black holes from 3 galaxies

The active galactic nucleus is a compact region at the center of a newly discovered galaxy The active galactic nuclei release huge amounts of ionized particles and energy into the galaxy and its environment These ultimately contribute to the growth of the medium around the galaxy and ultimately the evolution of the galaxy itself.

Indian astronomers trace mystery behind dwarf galaxy aberrations

Most of these tiny tots called dwarf galaxies form stars at a much slower rate than the massive ones Some dwarf galaxies are seen forming new stars at a mass-normalized rate 10-100 times more than that of the Milky-way galaxy These activities, however, do not last longer than a few tens of million-years, a period which is much shorter than the age of these galaxies

Earliest galaxies in universe identified

Scientists found evidence that the faintest satellite galaxies orbiting our own Milky Way galaxy are amongst the very first galaxies that formed in our universe.

Milky Way's neighbouring galaxy is the same size, reveals study

The research suggests scientists previously overestimated the amount of dark matter in the Andromeda galaxy.

Dark matter-based cosmology model defied by ordered dwarf galaxies

The researchers were able to show that 14 of the 16 satellite galaxies follow the same pattern of movement and are likely rotating within the plane around the main galaxy.

Pair of rare hyper-luminous galaxies spotted for the first time

The ADFS-27 system has approximately 50 times the amount of star-forming gas as the Milky Way, said the study published in the Astrophysical Journal.

NASA's Hubble captures distant galaxies as asteroids photobomb them - See pics

Asteroid trails can be seen across the image as curved or S-shaped streaks. Instead of appearing as one long trail, appear in multiple Hubble exposures that have been combined into one image.

Eating habits of black holes make some galaxies appear brighter

For decades, astronomers have tried to pin down why two of the most common types of active galaxies, known as Type-I and Type-II galaxies, appear different when observed from Earth.

What makes Milky Way different from other galaxies? - Find out

The Milky Way is host to several dozen smaller galaxy satellites.

How many black holes does Milky Way have? Probably a 100 million, say scientists!

The new research was an attempt to interpret the gravitational wave detections through the lens of what is known about galaxy formation and to form a framework for understanding future occurrences.

Two largest galaxies of Milky Way connected by bridge of stars: Scientists

Known as the Magellanic Clouds - appear to be connected by a bridge stretching across 43,000 light years, claim scientists.

Researchers find dark matter 'killing galaxies'

The study combined the world's largest galaxy survey -- the Sloan Digital Sky Survey -- with the largest ever set of radio observations for atomic gas -- the Arecibo Legacy Fast ALFA survey in order to solve the case.
