Selections from 2025: The Formation of Massive Stars
Researchers used an airborne telescope to find out more about the origins of massive stars in our galaxy.
With immense amounts of data headed our way from ground-based facilities like the Vera C. Rubin Observatory, new methods are needed to rapidly and effectively process high-resolution images.
During the exceptionally deep solar minimum of 2008, researchers thought the Sun might be entering a prolonged period of low solar activity — but the Sun had other plans.
The repeating fast radio burst source FRB 20240209A is the only known repeating burst to come from a quiescent galaxy.
SN 2023ixf is the closest supernova in a decade. Did researchers detect gravitational waves from the explosion?
The third interstellar object to enter our solar system, 3I/ATLAS, is without a doubt one of the most fascinating astronomical discoveries of this year.
A recent study with JWST has unveiled how a reionization-era quasar has suppressed star formation in its galactic neighbors.
Researchers examine the possibility that one-off and repeating fast radio bursts could both arise from magnetars.
Astrobites reports on the Fomalhaut debris disk, which is well studied but may contain a hidden planet we haven’t seen yet.
