New image release: Hubble’s weird perspective of a spiral galaxy

Believe it or not, this long, luminous streak, speckled with bright blisters and pockets of material, is a structure like our Milky Way

Deep Space

Astronomers map more of Milky Way’s puzzling cosmic void

The existence of the Local Void has been widely accepted, but it remained poorly studied because it lies behind the centre of our galaxy and is therefore heavily obscured from our view

Astronomy

Why can’t I see red dwarf stars with the naked eye?

The nearest star to our Sun is a red dwarf but why is it a struggle to see it?

Deep Space

Can you get a double supernova explosion?

One supernova explosion is enough to pack a punch, but can two go off at the same time?
