Researchers at the International Center for Radio Astronomy Research (ICRAR) made the discovery about galaxies by studying the gas distribution that helps create stars. Using CSIRO's ASKAP radio ...

The discovery made by a large research team challenges the existing models of the universe.

New images taken by NASA's James Webb Space Telescope show young stars forming within a "toe bean" on the Cat's Paw Nebula. The Cat's Paw Nebula is named after its resemblance to a feline footprint: ...

Star forming regions as a research area focuses on the physical processes governing the collapse of molecular clouds and the subsequent birth of stars and planetary systems. This field investigates ...

Historically most scientists thought that once a satellite galaxy has passed close by its higher mass parent galaxy its star formation would stop because the larger galaxy would remove the gas from it ...
