However, the James Webb Space Telescope, launched in December 2021, has disrupted that model. In a new study, scientists identified three massive galaxies — dubbed "Red Monsters" — each almost ...
"This unique lensing configuration allows us to constrain both the Hubble constant and dark energy parameters simultaneously — something that is generally not possible." Using the James Webb ...

As such, a team of researchers recently built a database concerning how certain minerals in cooled lava on an exoplanet might reveal themselves to one of astronomy's most powerful instruments: the ...
Peculiar James Webb Space Telescope observations seem to show gargantuan black holes in the earliest moments of the universe. New research may explain how they formed, thanks to primordial "seeds".
This mid-infrared image from NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope highlights the glowing cold dust, shown in white, within two galaxies: IC 2163 and NGC 2207. The smaller galaxy, IC 2163 ...
Using ESO's Very Large Telescope (VLT), an international team of astronomers has inspected an icy protoplanetary disk of a young star known as PDS 453. Results of the new study, published on the ...
