New supercomputer simulations suggest the Milky Way could be surrounded by dozens more faint, undetected satellite ...

But in the past two decades, new types of black holes have been seen and astronomers are beginning to understand how they ...

The Milky Way could be home to more galaxies than initially thought, scientists at Durham University discovered.

Sound waves 'fossilized' in the arrangements of galaxies across the Universe support the theory that the Milky Way galaxy ...

According to a provocative new study, that might just be our cosmic address. This idea is meant to solve one of the biggest puzzles in cosmology: the Hubble tension. This long-standing discrepancy ...
