Scientists are revolutionizing our understanding of the universe’s most mysterious component: dark matter, the invisible ...

A super-Earth planet that dips in and out of its star's habitable zone has been discovered just 19.7 light-years away.

A "cosmic CT scan" performed by scientists using two very different cosmic surveys has revealed the cosmos is less clumpy and ...

Computer algorithms can model the universe, matching simulations to observations and revealing the distribution of dark ...

Is the universe flat and infinite, or something more complex? We can’t say for sure, but a new search strategy is mapping out ...

"Little red dot" galaxies discovered by the James Webb Space Telescope in the early cosmos appear to be ruled by supermassive ...

A new computational method gleans more information than its predecessors from maps showing how galaxies are clustered and threaded throughout the universe.

The project, called OpenUniverse, relied on the now-retired Theta supercomputer at the DOE’s (Department of Energy’s) Argonne National Laboratory in Illinois. The supercomputer accomplished a process ...
