Hubble Telescope Captures Image of Merging Galaxies in Coma Cluster, 390 Million Light-Years Away
NASA and the European Space Agency (ESA) have shared an image of two galaxies, MCG+05-31-045, interacting within the Coma Cluster. Located 390 million light-years away, the pair is in the midst of a cosmic merger. As the smaller galaxy is pulled into the larger one, a new wave of star formation is expected. Over time, the galaxies will likely evolv...

Researchers Identify Amygdala Cell Clusters To Treat Anxiety and Depression
A recent study by UC Davis researchers has unveiled specific cell clusters in the amygdala that could provide insights into treating anxiety and depression. By examining these cell types in both humans and non-human primates, the research opens pathways for targeted therapies. Notably, FOXP2-expressing cells could serve as vital targets for new dru...

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,...

Hubble Space Telescope Unveils IC 3225, the Cannonball Galaxy in Virgo
The Hubble Space Telescope has captured a remarkable image of the spiral galaxy IC 3225, which resembles a cannonball moving through space. Located approximately 100 million light-years away in the Virgo galaxy cluster, IC 3225 exhibits distinct features, including a bright, star-forming arm and a tail of gas. The galaxy's unusual shape results fro...

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...

James Webb Telescope Reveals Massive Westerlund 1 Super Star Cluster Hidden in Milky Way’s Dust
The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) has unveiled Westerlund 1, the Milky Way’s largest super star cluster, located 12,000 light-years away in the constellation Ara. This massive cluster, with stars up to 2,000 times larger than the Sun, has a total mass between 50,000 to 100,000 times that of the Sun. Previously hidden by cosmic dust, Westerlun...

ESA Cluster Mission Satellite Successfully Reenters Earth After Spending 24 Years in Space
The European Space Agency (ESA) is concluding the Cluster mission, with the first of four satellites safely reentering Earth's atmosphere. This marks the end of a mission that has provided 24 years of valuable space data. In January, the satellite's orbit was adjusted to ensure its reentry would target an uninhabited area, reducing risks for humans...

Salsa Satellite Cluster Reentry to Occur On September 8, ESA Scientists Plan to Observe It Live
The European Space Agency (ESA) will witness a rare event as the first of four Cluster satellites, named "Salsa", re-enters Earth's atmosphere on September 8. This satellite, launched as part of ESA's Cluster mission, will burn up in an uncontrolled yet targeted reentry over a remote part of the South Pacific Ocean. The event presents a unique oppo...
