Astronomers recently discovered a strange repeating rhythm of fast radio bursts coming from outside our galaxy. “Fast radio bursts, or FRBs, are short, intense flashes of radio waves that are thought ...
A rare cosmic alignment has revealed three supermassive black holes blasting radio jets at the same time inside a tangled ...
Three merging galaxies host three active black holes, offering rare insight into galaxy and black hole growth.
Astronomers have detected fast-repeating radio bursts from a distant "dead" galaxy that should not contain the energy to produce these types of signals, according to new research. The source of the ...
A team of international astronomers has made an unprecedented discovery of a galaxy that has undergone a significant classification shift due to its core activity. Previously known as a radio galaxy, ...
Hercules A is an example of a radio galaxy (Image Credit: NASA, ESA, S. Baum and C. O’Dea (RIT), R. Perley and W. Cotton (NRAO/AUI/NSF), and the Hubble Heritage Team (STScI/AURA) How do galaxies with ...
A striking orange and blue streak fills this new image from NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope. Hubble’s visible and infrared capabilities captured this edge-on view of lenticular galaxy NGC 612.
Astronomers found a giant hourglass shape around a galaxy called ESO 130 G012. This structure is made of radio waves and ...
An international team of astronomers has detected the most distant radio galaxy ever observed. By measuring the redshift of its light, the researchers determined that the object is about 12 billion ...
Astronomers have confirmed the first known triple system in which all three galaxies host actively feeding, radio-bright ...
