"We'll be looking for the occasional celestial flash," said Joseph Lazio, a radio astronomer at JPL. "These flashes can be anything from explosions on surfaces of nearby stars, deaths of distant stars, exploding black holes, or even perhaps transmissions by...



NASA's Swift satellite, Hubble Space Telescope and Chandra X-ray Observatory have teamed up to study one of the most puzzling cosmic blasts ever observed. More than a week later, high-energy radiation continues to brighten and fade from its location. Astronomers...



A pair of gravitationally interacting galaxies called Arp 147 contain the remnant of a spiral galaxy (right) that collided with the elliptical galaxy on the left, producing an expanding wave of star formation that shows up as a blue ring...



The combined observations from multiple telescopes of Henize 2-10, a dwarf starburst galaxy located about 30 million light years from Earth, has provided astronomers with a detailed new look at how galaxy and black hole formation may have occured in...



The galaxies in this cosmic pairing, captured by the Wide Field Imager on the MPG/ESO 2.2-meter telescope at the La Silla Observatory in Chile, display some odd features, demonstrating that each member of the duo is close enough to feel...



“It was the failures who had always won, but by the time they won they had come to be called successes. This is the final paradox, which men call evolution.” Loren Eiseley -The Immense Journey A "seismic shift" occured in...


This satellite image of Abbottabad, Pakistan shows the compound where Osama Bin Laden was shot and killed by US special forces and CIA centered in the image. The house is on a upside down triangular shaped lot. Abbottabad is essentially...
