Galaxy Formation

Wear OS 5 will no longer support older watch faces on the Play Store, the company announced on Wednesday. The incompatible watch faces include those not developed using WFF (Watch Face Format). Google says only watch faces which meet Google’s quality standards and performance will be accessible on smartwatches running the new firmware.

These 19 spiral galaxy photos appear to show that galaxies grow from the inside out, which means that star formation begins in the centre of the galaxy and spreads outward through its spiral arms.

The identification of another ultra-large structure in remote space continues to defy our understanding of the cosmos.

Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra is tipped to get an optimised primary 200-megapixel camera sensor over its predecessor. The new Samsung ISOCELL HP2SX sensor is said to be an updated version of the 200-megapixel ISOCELL HP2 seen on the Galaxy S23 Ultra. It is said to include 200 million pixels in a 1/1.3 optical format and has 0.6-micron pixels (μm).

The team of researchers found evidence that these young galaxies underwent periods of rapid star formation interspersed.

The detection of a highly compact galaxy that formed soon after the Big Bang and displayed an impressive rate of star formation is the latest example of how the James Webb Space Telescope is reshaping our understanding of the early universe.

Peering into the turmoil of a Cartwheel Galaxy, American Space Agency NASA's James Webb Telescope has discovered new information on star formation and the galaxy's central black hole.

A research team including astronomers from the US, India and France have studied the formation of new stars beyond the visible boundaries. The team is yet to understand how the dwarf galaxies of the past have evolved into the ones in the present day. The team includes Indian scholar Anshuman Borgohain from Tezpur University.

A first of its kind study has found new stars forming beyond the visible boundaries about 1.5 to 3.9 billion light years away from the Earth, according to an article by a research scholar of Tezpur University.

A team of astronomers have modelled emission lines using data from various bservatories to demonstrate how supermassive clouds can influence star formation in interstellar clouds. Measuring the gas pressure in interstellar clouds impacted by jets and ambient clouds, revealed that there was change in the internal and external pressure of the molecul...

An image of a gravitationally lensed galaxy was recently captured by the Hubble Space Telescope. It featured a mirror image of the galaxy in the centre, caused by gravitational lensing that takes place when huge celestial bodies, like a galaxy cluster, causes the light passing though it to bend. Here's how gravitational lensing can lead to the form...

Scientists have determined one of the biggest mysteries in recent astrophysics – the formation of quasars in the early universe. These cosmic entities were first spotted in 2003. A team of researchers has found out that these primordial quasars naturally formed in chaotic conditions of rare gas reservoirs of the early universe.

Astronomers have found that the distant galaxy has been spewing elements required for the formation of galaxies and stars. A1689-zD1 doesn't produce many stars, causing it to appear dimmer than other galaxies observed through telescopes.

NASA has shared a new image that shows two galaxies colliding. The image was created using data from Hubble Space Telescope and Chandra X-ray Observatory.

A recent research based on Hubble Space Telescope findings showed that black holes could go against their all-absorbing nature at times and may aid creation. The research showed a supermassive black hole at the centre of a dwarf galaxy, some 30 million light-years away, creating stars rather than swallowing it.
