Researchers from the University of Minnesota Twin Cities and Université Paris-Saclay have reopened one of cosmology’s oldest ...

A recent scientific study has suggested that the first stars in the universe formed in conditions very different from what researchers had long believed. Instead of forming in a cold and quiet ...

Recent James Webb Space Telescope data confirms a decade-old theory that the universe's earliest supermassive black holes ...

The Universe may not have started with the Big Bang, but instead “bounced” out of a massive black hole formed within a larger “parent” universe, according to a new scientific paper. Professor Enrique ...

For years, the James Webb Space Telescope has been spotting enormous black holes in the early universe that defy all ...

New models explain how small black holes in the early universe beat the clock and grew into massive objects within millions ...

Cloud 9 is a failed galaxy. It’s a clump of dark matter, called a dark matter halo, that never formed stars. But this failure could be the key to a mystery almost as old as the universe itself: dark ...

Scientists have found a remarkably small yet bright object from the early universe that doesn’t make sense in our existing models of how stars and galaxies formed, even our own Milky Way. That means ...

Life has found a home on Earth for around 4 billion years. That's a significant fraction of the universe's 13.77 billion-year history. Presumably, if life arose here, it could have appeared anywhere.

The Big Bang is often described as the explosive birth of the universe – a singular moment when space, time and matter sprang into existence. But what if this was not the beginning at all? What if our ...

New simulations suggest early black holes grew rapidly through intense feeding, helping explain why massive black holes appeared so soon after the Big Bang ...
