NASA’s Webb Telescope Reveals Firefly Sparkle, a Milky Way-Like Galaxy
The James Webb Space Telescope has captured the Firefly Sparkle galaxy, existing 600 million years after the Big Bang. This rare discovery showcases a galaxy similar in mass to the Milky Way during its early years. Unprecedented details were revealed using gravitational lensing and infrared imaging, highlighting 10 distinct star clusters within Fir...

James Webb Telescope Uncovers First Possible Brown Dwarfs Beyond Milky Way
The James Webb Space Telescope has possibly identified brown dwarfs beyond the Milky Way for the first time, offering new insights into how stars formed in the early universe. Located in the star cluster NGC 602 within the Small Magellanic Cloud, these “failed stars” may help explain star formation under early cosmic conditions. This discovery,...

Astronomers Successfully Detect Brown Dwarfs in a Distant Star Cluster
For the first time, astronomers have detected brown dwarfs outside the Milky Way in the star cluster NGC 602, situated approximately 200,000 light-years away in the Small Magellanic Cloud. Utilising the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), the team sought young brown dwarf candidates in an environment that resembles the early universe, with limited h...

Dwarf Galaxies of Earth’s Second Closest Galaxy Cluster Devoid of Dark Matter Halos
In a study led by the University of Bonn and the University of Saint Andrews (Scotland), astronomers suggest that the dark matter halos are absent from the dwarf galaxies in the Fornax Cluster, the second closest galaxy cluster to Earth. The findings were published in the Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society.
