What if there is no such thing as dark matter? What if our understanding of gravity is just wrong? New work is taking another shot at that Einstein guy. Let’s see if we’ve finally scored a hit with Modified Newtonian Dynamics aka MOND.

Our universe is not a very diverse place when it comes to shapes. Large celestial bodies become spheres, galaxies become discs, and there is little room for variation. Why is this? Well it turns out physics has some pretty strict rules...

Most galaxies that we know of are spirals, including the Milky Way, but how do they form and keep their shape over billions of years?

It’s easy to imagine that our galaxy is basically frozen in time from the perspective of a human lifespan, but in fact, the Milky Way is incredibly dynamic and will undergo some pretty amazing changes in only a few decades!

The Milky Way is our neighborhood in the universe. It’s a galaxy and there are many others out there. Galaxies contain gas, dust, and billions of stars or more. They come in four main shapes: elliptical, spiral, peculiar, and irregular....

The James Webb Space Telescope has captured 19 spiral galaxies "face-on" in near- and mid-infrared. The images "show stars, gas, and dust on the smallest scales ever observed beyond our own galaxy," according to...

Supermassive black holes and their distribution in the universe.

We've learned a lot about stars! We know how they form, and we know that most of them exist in galaxies. But how are they arranged within galaxies? And are there different types of galaxies or are they all the same? There is a lot to...

The James Webb Space Telescope, which launched Dec. 25, will allow us to see the farthest galaxies and better understand the origins of the Milky Way. Aaron Yung at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center is preparing for these historic...
