This scene of cosmic chaos shows a section of the immense Perseus galaxy cluster, revealing several giant elliptical galaxies ...

The Andromeda galaxy is a colossal marvel in our sky, hosting over 1 trillion stars. Now, astronomers have used the Hubble ...

For the first time, astronomers have traced a fast radio burst (FRB) to the outskirts of an ancient, dead, elliptical ...

Most stars today are found in spheroids—dense, bulging regions within spiral and elliptical galaxies. The origins of these structures have long puzzled scientists, despite theories linking their ...

The Virgo Cluster contains about a thousand galaxies, and spans about ten million light-years. Several giant elliptical galaxies inhabit the central regions of the Virgo Cluster. These giants are ...

ponder that fact that the Andromeda Galaxy is on a collision course with the Milky Way; we’ll eventually merge in about four billion years to become a giant elliptical galaxy. Wishing you clear ...

The dense regions of the universe, like galaxy clusters, aredominated by giant elliptical galaxies—massive, ancient galaxies that consist of old stars. Although the mechanism by which these ...

Astronomers are celebrating the completion of a 2.5-billion-pixel panoramic picture of the entire Andromeda Galaxy. The team includes several UC Santa Cruz researchers who made significant ...

(TNND) — Astronomers have discovered fast-repeating radio signals coming from a distant "dead" galaxy. This is an unusual ...

Figure 1). Figure 2 - Diagram illustrating the process of spheroid formation in distant submillimeter-bright galaxies and its link with the evolution of giant elliptical galaxies in the current ...
