The rotating model, which does not break any known law of physics, suggests the universe could spin around once every 500 billion years. This would be far too slowly to detect easily, but enough to ...

Neutron star mergers are collisions between neutron stars, the collapsed cores of what were once massive supergiant stars.

In simplest terms, the rate at which the universe expands on paper doesn’t match actual astronomical observations. That speed ...

A new approach suggests that a tiny spin of the universe throughout space might reconcile those conflicting numbers. If the ...

A new study suggests the universe may rotate -- just extremely slowly. The finding could help solve one of astronomy's biggest puzzles.

The European Space Agency (ESA) has launched one of its most precise science experiments to date — the Atomic Clock Ensemble ...

Astronomers may have found the strongest hint of life beyond Earth thanks to new data from the James Webb Space Telescope.

Astronomers have detected the most promising signs yet of a possible biosignature outside the solar system, although they ...

A team of astronomers has detected what they call the most promising signs to date of a possible biosignature, or signs of ...

A newly discovered comet, called C/2025 F2 (SWAN), may have disintegrated. But the remnants are still visible.

Near a planet far, far away astronomers have found traces of chemicals that on Earth are only produced by living beings.
