'We know so little': Bizarre 'runaway' planets discovered by James Webb telescope may be failed stars in disguise
A new theory explains how dozens of mysterious planet pairs discovered by the James Webb Space Telescope, dubbed "JuMBOs," may have formed.
Black hole paradox that stumped Stephen Hawking may have a solution, new paper claims
As black holes slowly vanish through Hawking radiation, their information may be preserved in subtle space-time ripples, a new theory suggests.
Mysterious, repeating radio bursts from space may finally have an explanation
By searching sparsely populated regions of the galaxy, astronomers have for the first time found the source of a kind of signal that has puzzled them for years.
