This image shows a tightly packed globular cluster called NGC 2210, which is located about 160,000 light-years away within the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC). The Large Magellanic Cloud and Milky Way are gravitationally attached. Globular Clusters are a stable, tightly attached group of stars that contain thousands to millions of old stars. Globular clusters are […]

A team of astronomers with the leader named Pierluigi Rinaldi discovers Hydrogen- Alpha Emissions during the era of Reionization. The detection of H-alpha emissions was possible thanks to the farthest images taken by the Mid-Infrared (MIRI) Instrument on the James Webb Space Telescope. The study has been accepted in the Astrophysical Journal and is currently

Magnetars are one of the most interesting objects in space. These neutron stars are so massive that one teaspoon of what they are made of would weigh nearly one billion tons and possess magnetic fields that are a hundred million times more powerful than any magnet on Earth. Despite these facts, researchers don’t know much
