"Our measurements imply that the supermassive black hole mass is 10% of the stellar mass in the galaxies we studied." ...

Star formation in the early universe was a vigorous process that created gigantic stars. Called Population III stars, these ...

For stars heavier than eight but lighter than 25 solar masses, neutron stars will be produced, which instead, are mainly upheld by neutron degeneracy pressure. For non-rotating neutron stars ...

These two properties of axions mean that they are exceptionally good at collapsing down to incredibly high densities, pulled ...

The enormous visitor to our solar system may have been about 8 times the mass of Jupiter, and come nearly as close to the sun ...

Our sun is a lonely star. At least half the stars in our galaxy have binary companions. This was nicely illustrated in the ...

Young supernovas could have spread water out into the cosmos, causing planet formations earlier than originally thought.

Only after that could rocky planets form, and by extension, habitable planets. That’s been axiomatic in astronomy.

The term "blue" is a bit of a misnomer because the star's color blends in with all the other solar-mass stars in the cluster. Hence it is sort of "lurking" among the common stellar population.
