Even with advanced technology, Earth's atmosphere limits our ability to observe the Universe across most electromagnetic wavelengths.

Dark matter's gravitational effects underpin multiple cosmic phenomena, and new techniques enable rigorous mapping of its distribution through faint light emissions in galaxy clusters.

The Ring Nebula is a complex planetary nebula with a barrel-like structure, redefined through advanced imaging techniques.

Its shape and composition reveal insights about the lifecycle of Sun-like stars.

Exoplanets can experience extreme conditions leading to their physical disintegration, revealing insights into planetary interiors beyond our Solar System.

JWST has observed light from the ancient galaxy JADES-GS-z13-1-LA, challenging existing theories of early galaxy formation.

JWST's discoveries of ultra-distant galaxies challenge existing cosmic models, leading to new questions about early Universe star formation and galaxy formation.

Exoplanet WASP-107 b is unusually 'puffy' due to its low mass, hot atmosphere with little methane, and a core heavier than previously thought.

Smaller, lower-mass galaxies are more common in the universe than larger ones, playing a key role in cosmic dynamics.

New stars in the Taurus Molecular Cloud are supported by protoplanetary disks vital for planet formation.

JWST's observations spotlight new star formation in the galaxy's sparse outskirts, revealing the potential for future solar systems.

The JWST reveals early galaxies, shedding light on the Universe's evolution and the formation of modern Milky Way-like galaxies.

Astronomers use telescopes like JWST's MIRI and NIRCam to study the Horsehead Nebula and its chemistry for insights into star system formation.
