NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope Reveals the Complex Structure of a Planetary Nebula
NASA's James Webb Space Telescope has unveiled the complex character of NGC 1514, a planetary nebula developing over at least 4,000 years. Only seen in infrared light, the nebula's rings now resemble "fuzzy" clusters set in twisted patterns. A network of sharper holes near the centre stars indicates where faster material punched through.

Invisible Boson Stars Could Hold the Key to Dark Matter's Mysteries
Boson stars, invisible celestial objects theorised to form from axions, are now at the centre of dark matter research. Axions, light and wave-like bosons, may cluster under gravity, forming these mysterious entities. Unlike normal stars, boson stars neither emit light nor interact with regular matter in observable ways. With sizes ranging from smal...

Astronomers Seek Binary Supermassive Black Holes in Galactic Centers
Astronomers have detected possible binary black holes at the centres of galaxies, using light patterns from active galactic nuclei as key indicators. The study of PG 1553+153, in particular, shows evidence of a 20-year variation, pointing to a system of two supermassive black holes. If confirmed, this could provide new insights into galaxy formatio...
