Newswise — A spectacular head-on collision between two galaxies fueled the unusual triangular-shaped star-birthing frenzy, as captured in a new image from NASA's Hubble Space Telescope. The ...

Astronomers think that some 10 billion years ago, our Milky Way galaxy collided with another galaxy, which they’ve dubbed the Gaia Sausage. And on July 21, 2026, a team of astronomers at the Royal ...

Astronomers have detected a neutron star collision in an unexpected place, deep within a tiny, faint galaxy. Located about 4.7 billion light-years away, this collision occurred within a vast gas ...

Something enormous is on its way to our cosmic neighborhood. The Milky Way, along with our closest major neighbor the Andromeda galaxy, is moving toward a future collision. These are not small systems ...

It turns out that looming collision between our Milky Way and Andromeda galaxies might not happen after all. Astronomers reported Monday that the probability of the two spiral galaxies colliding is ...

An astronomer at the University of Hawaiʻi at Hilo is using data from the Canada–France–Hawaiʻi Telescope (CFHT) on Maunakea to help reconstruct a slow-motion cosmic collision, one that has been ...

The pseudo-color images of JWST’s Quintet at redshift 6.71. a) The pseudocolor image created from NIRCam F115W (blue), F150W (green), and F200W (red) images. The five emission line galaxies in JWST’s ...

A fleet of NASA missions has likely uncovered a collision between two ultradense stars in a tiny galaxy buried in a huge stream of gas. Astronomers have never seen this type of explosive event in an ...

Scientists from Helsinki, Durham and Toulouse universities used data from NASA’s Hubble and the European Space Agency’s Gaia space telescopes to simulate how the Milky Way and Andromeda will evolve ...
