一种彩虹色的狼蛛、一种毒蛇和一种手指呈钩状的毛茸茸的长臂猿之间有什么联系？它们都被列入了一份高度濒危物种的名单中，一英国慈善组织表示将于今年优先救助这份名单上的动物。

Gas clouds do trigger bursts of star formation in merging galaxies through large-scale compression caused by gravitational interaction. When galaxies pass close to one another, their interstellar gas ...

Astronomers are drawing attention to a Christmas Tree-shaped cluster of stars glowing inside one of the Milky Way’s most active stellar nurseries. Known as the Cosmic Christmas Tree, the cluster sits ...

Researchers from Yunnan University, the Shanghai Astronomical Observatory (SHAO) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and the National Astronomical Observatory of Japan have unveiled new insights into ...

NASA’s Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope is scheduled to conduct the Galactic Plane Survey to map the Milky Way’s structure and examine star formation across the galaxy. The survey, Roman’s first ...

Code Geass: Aspar the Star Chaser is the latest installment to the long-running series Code Geass, and was announced as one of the projects in the series dedicated to its twenty-first anniversary. The ...

New infrared observations from NASA’s SOFIA observatory have revealed a puzzling slowdown in massive star formation near the center of our Galaxy. Credit: Stock The current rate of star formation at ...

The Universe is 13.8 billion years old. Incredibly, though, scientists are capable of modeling the first seconds following the Big Bang. By doing so, they detail how the Universe went from a scorching ...

Imagine a universe that barely exists—just fractions of a second old, too young to look anything like the cosmos we know today. Now, picture black holes, boson stars, and even something as outlandish ...

Astronomers using data from ESA's Euclid and Herschel space telescopes have confirmed that star formation has already peaked in the cosmos, and that the universe is bound to get steadily 'colder and ...

Stars forming in a variety of star-forming environments exhibit associated magnetized jets and winds. These outflows are dynamic and highly energetic phenomena that play a critical role in stellar and ...
