A massive filament of gas and dust, designated X7, has been elongated during its long approach to the Milky Way galaxy's ...

Abstract: Filaments of galaxies are known to stretch between galaxy clusters at all redshifts in a complex manner. In this Letter, we present an analysis of the frequency and distribution of ...

A shroud of gas stretches up to a million light years around every galaxy and is its first interaction with the wider ...

Out now (having arrived on Friday, Sept. 13, 2024), this four-piece, family-friendly show revolves around a mild-mannered ...

Abstract: The orientations of the red galaxies in a filament are aligned with the orientation of the filament. We thus develop a location-alignment-method (LAM) of detecting filaments around clusters ...

Microtubules are the largest type of filament, with a diameter of about 25 nanometers (nm), and they are composed of a protein called tubulin. Actin filaments are the smallest type, with a ...

A new image from the James Webb Space Telescope shows Arp 107, home to two merging galaxies, with two bright cores and a ...

A fan cools the filament just before it goes onto the spool. The same stepper motor is used for both stages of the process. We like the simplicity of this machine compared to a conventional screw ...

Rebuild the Galaxy does offer up some “what if” scenarios for viewers. However, the delightful four-part miniseries does much ...

“We see this at sunset on any clear day when the sun looks fainter.” The work is based on observations of the active galactic nuclei of NGC 5548, a galaxy 250 million light-years distant in ...

The spiral Andromeda galaxy is our closest neighbor, sitting 2.5 million light-years away. The consensus was that after circling ever closer for billions of years, the two galaxies would collide.

Hugh McIntyre covers music, with a focus on the global charts. Before he agreed to make a movie about “We Are The World,” director Bao Nguyen was likely just as knowledgeable about the hit ...
