We all know the perfect, symmetrical and flawless galaxies Hubble has set its lense on, but there is also a catalogue dedicated to the most peculiar galaxies out there... The Arp Catalogue

A new study using observations from NASA's Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope reveals the first clear-cut evidence that the expanding debris of exploded stars produces some of the fastest-moving matter in the universe. This...

Hubble has taken some spectacular images of many different galaxies, but it can't resolve more than a few blobs on Pluto's surface. Why is that?

Get My Job explores the day in the life of different professions around Australia. In this episode we meet an Astrophysicist.

O-type stars are among the most massive and hottest known, pounding their surroundings with intense ultraviolet light and powerful outflows called stellar winds. NASA's Swift and ESA's XMM-Newton X-ray observatories took part in a...

Yesterday, on the 31st May 2020, NASA and SpaceX successfully docked their Dragon capsule with the ISS. But what makes this event so significant?

Learn all about quasars, extremely bright objects in outer space powered by black holes. This video explains how they were discovered, their connection to supermassive black holes, and their significance in understanding the early...

Betelgeuse, Betelgeuse, Betelgeuse. Why were you dimming? Scientists may have finally come up with the answer thanks to data from Hubble.

NASA has begun work on an ambitious new project that will carry a cutting-edge telescope high into the stratosphere on a balloon.<br/>

Astronomer Steve Eikenberry at the University of Florida is on the hunt for black holes. Using a custom built camera affixed to the Gemini South telescope in Chile, he is honing in on the supermassive black hole at the center of our...

Astrum shows what a supervoid really is, and explains why this image isn't one.

The Milky Way, Our Galaxy, Part 2

Deep surveys by the James Webb Space Telescope will capture the full panorama of galaxy evolution, from the earliest dwarf galaxies that formed to the familiar galaxies we see today. The Webb Telescope will help us understand how the...

NASA's Hubble Space Telescope took an image of a bizarre, ghostly looking galaxy called NGC 1052-DF2 that astronomers calculate to have little to no dark matter. This is the first galaxy astronomers have discovered to be so...

When will the next naked-eye supernova event happen? What will it look like? Will we be safe?

The Vera C. Rubin Observatory is perhaps the next most exciting observatory to the James Webb Space Telescope.
