París, July 17, 2024.- Scientists have combined Euclid’s recently released image of the massive galaxy cluster Abell 2390 with XMM-Newton’s X-ray observation of the same site to showcase the blazing hot gas that fills the space between the galaxies. In the image, the light captured by XMM-Newton appears as aContinuar Leyendo
An international team of astronomers has used more than 500 images from the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope spanning two decades to detect seven fast-moving stars in the innermost region of Omega Centauri, the largest and brightest globular cluster in the sky. These stars provide compelling new evidence for the presenceContinuar Leyendo
Using the NASA/ESA/CSA James Webb Space Telescope, scientists observed the region above Jupiter’s iconic Great Red Spot to discover a variety of previously unseen features. The region, previously believed to be unremarkable in nature, hosts a variety of intricate structures and activity. París, June 25, 2024.- Jupiter is one ofContinuar Leyendo
New data revise our view of this unusual supernova explosion. París, June 17, 2024.- The Crab Nebula is a nearby example of the debris left behind when a star undergoes a violent death in a supernova explosion. However, despite decades of study, this supernova remnant continues to maintain a degreeContinuar Leyendo
Astronomers, maybe more than anyone, appreciate what an island of perfection our Earth is. Our orbit may put us at a perfect distance from the sun for life to flourish, but it is too small to easily help astronomers determine how big the universe is. Washington DC, June 17, 2024.-Continuar Leyendo
Architecture and Engineering firm, IDOM, completes successful final design review for one of the largest mechanized smart buildings in the world Pasadena, CA, June 15, 2024.- The Giant Magellan Telescope and IDOM today announced that the telescope’s enclosure, set to be one of the world’s largest astronomical facilities, passed itsContinuar Leyendo
Data collected using the NASA/ESA/CSA James Webb Space Telescope, combined with earlier observations from the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope, show surprisingly little methane (CH4) in the atmosphere of WASP-107 b, indicating that the interior of the planet must be significantly hotter and the core much more massive than previously estimated.Continuar Leyendo
An international team of astronomers have used the NASA/ESA/CSA James Webb Space Telescope to find evidence for an ongoing merger of two galaxies and their massive black holes when the Universe was only 740 million years old. This marks the most distant detection of a black hole merger ever obtainedContinuar Leyendo
Researchers using the NASA/ESA/CSA James Webb Space Telescope may have detected atmospheric gases surrounding 55 Cancri e, a hot rocky exoplanet 41 light-years from Earth. This is the best evidence to date for the existence of a rocky planet atmosphere outside our Solar System. París, May 08, 2024.- Renyu HuContinuar Leyendo
Tucson, April 18, 2024.- University of Arizona Lunar and Planetary Laboratory researchers will have a hand in two of the three instruments NASA selected for deployment on the lunar surface by Artemis III astronauts. Once installed near the moon’s South Pole, the instruments will collect valuable scientific data about theContinuar Leyendo
