Vera C. Rubin Observatory: The groundbreaking mission to make a 10-year, time-lapse movie of the universe
Armed with the world's largest digital camera, the Vera C. Rubin Observatory in Chile will take night-sky images that revolutionize astronomy.
Echoes from the Big Bang suggest Earth is trapped inside a giant cosmic void, scientists claim
Astronomers claim to have found new evidence supporting a controversial observation that our galaxy is residing in an unusually sparse region in space. If it's correct, it could rewrite cosmology.
James Webb telescope reveals dizzying galaxies in the Bullet Cluster: Space photo of the week
This unprecedented view of the Bullet Cluster provided by the James Webb Space Telescope and the Chandra X-ray Observatory reveals how the dark matter is distributed.
Giant radio telescope in the Nevada desert could reveal hidden corners of the cosmos — and brand-new physics
Scientists say that the construction of a vast new radio telescope array in the Nevada desert — known as the Deep Synoptic Array 2000 — could uncover some of the biggest outstanding mysteries in astronomy.
Listen to the Andromeda galaxy's stars played as musical notes in eerie NASA video
NASA's Chandra Observatory has combined different wavelength images of the Andromeda galaxy to honor astronomer Vera Rubin, and then created a music video by converting the light in those images to musical notes.
How to see the first images from the Vera C. Rubin Observatory on Monday
The Vera C. Rubin Observatory shared a "sneak peak" of its first highly-detailed space images this morning, with the full debut of all its new images coming at 11 a.m. EDT on Monday.
'A bundle of microscopic tornadoes' may be building the cosmic web
When invisible dark matter spins, it may form clumps of "vortexes" that stretch across space, forming the cosmic web that links all galaxies, new research proposes.
Mysterious deep-space radio signals reveal location of the universe's 'missing matter'
Much of the universe's regular "baryonic" matter is spread through intergalactic space and in diffuse halos around galaxies, researchers proposed after studying the behavior of fast radio bursts emitted from deep space.
