Ripples in the fabric of space-time called gravitational waves may be the key to solving the Hubble tension — one of the biggest nagging problems in physics.

This image, taken with ESO's Very Large Telescope (VLT), seems to have captured a cosmic hawk as it spans its wings. While ...

The galaxy NGC 941 was imaged by the Subaru Telescope at the summit of Maunakea, Hawai'i. Using the Subaru Telescope located at the summit of the extinct volcano Maunkea in Hawai'i, astronomers have ...

An extraordinarily rare, gravitationally lensed supernova may offer a powerful new way to measure the universe’s expansion rate.

Summary: Cosmic voids may seem like the emptiest places imaginable, stripped of matter and radiation. Yet modern physics reveals that even these vast expanses are far from nothing. Cosmic voids are ...

Black holes that turn matter into energy could explain dark energy and answer two other cosmic questions. Now, the challenge ...

This new series from India Today Science explores the why and how behind everyday phenomena we notice, question, and often ...

Cosmologist L Sriramkumar said gravitational waves could help scientists understand what happened just fractions of a second after the Big Bang ...

"The polarized light of the cosmic microwave background is sensitive to new physics that violates parity symmetry," the team ...

White noise on televisions and radios contained remnants of the Big Bang. When we saw it on screen during a bad reception or when channels were unavailable, we were unknowingly watching our universe's ...
