Using the Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical radio Telescope (FAST), astronomers have investigated the emission properties ...

FRBs are sporadic, intense flashes of radio wave energy that can be brighter than entire galaxies. In just thousandths of a ...

A blast of radio waves from the outskirts of an ancient galaxy challenges theories about what creates such bursts.

“We [will be able to] move quickly and map out very large areas of the sky,” adds Josh Schlieder, the telescope’s wide-field ...

Over the next several weeks, astronomers will be looking closely at an asteroid called 2024 YR4 that could be as big as a ...

Where things stand: The chances of the asteroid hitting Earth currently stand at 2.1%, or about 1 in 47, and could fall to ...

Astronomers have pinpointed an FRB outside a dead galaxy for the first time, challenging existing models that link FRBs to star-forming regions. Using the CHIME/FRB Outriggers, they suspect the burst ...

Chris Gunn—NASA It is a good thing that Roman can conduct its surveys fast, because it won’t have all that long to live. The Hubble Space Telescope has been aloft for 35 years and is still at ...

Captured by the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), this celestial spectacle ... the intense winds and fast-moving jets it blasts into space collide with the sparser gas and dust above and below ...
