Hubble Telescope Captures NGC 4536, a Starburst Galaxy with Intense Star Formation
NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope has captured a striking image of NGC 4536, a starburst galaxy 50 million light-years away in the Virgo constellation. The galaxy’s sweeping spiral arms are filled with young blue star clusters and ionized hydrogen gas, indicating rapid star formation. Astronomers believe its bar-like structure channels gas toward t...

NASA Hubble Space Telescope Captures a Spiral Galaxy With Multiple Starburst Regions
The Hubble Space Telescope has unveiled a stunning image of the spiral galaxy NGC 5248, also known as Caldwell 45, located 42 million light-years from Earth in the constellation Boötes. Known for its prominent spiral arms and intense star formation, NGC 5248 boasts two active nuclear rings, making it a fascinating subject for both professional and...

Ancient Starburst Evidence Found in Central Region of Milky Way: Study
An observation of the Milky Way Galaxy done by European Southern Observatory (ESO) using Very Large Telescope (VLT) has found the evidence of a burst star formation which led to over hundred thousands of supernova explosions in the central part of the galaxy.

Inner Structure of Galaxy at Edge of Universe Depicted in Unprecedented Detail
"This discovery is an important step to understand the evolutionary process of starburst galaxies and supermassive black holes in galaxies."

Why Do Some Galaxies 'Burst'
To help understand why some galaxies "burst" while others do not, an international team of astronomers have dissected a cluster of star-forming clouds at the heart of NGC 253, one of the nearest starburst galaxies to the Milky Way.

Monster starburst galaxies discovered in early universe
Astronomers using the world's largest ground-based telescope have discovered that galaxies started churning out stars at a high rate - when the universe was just a billion years old.
