The James Webb Space Telescope has captured a mid-infrared picture of Sagittarius A*, filling in a long-standing gap in ...

Astronomers compile a large sample of an unusual class of objects in an effort to connect the dots to the early universe.

Astronomers may have "saved cosmology" by gathering the largest sample yet of some of the most ancient galaxies ever seen, the so-called "little red dots" observed by the James Webb Space ...

The James Webb Space Telescope captured photos of one of the earliest supernovas ever seen using infrared technology, and creating a time lapse of the phenomena.

"The Spiderweb protocluster is an ideal laboratory for investigating the relationship between black holes and star formation in detail." NASA's James Webb Space ... of matter inside the collapsing ...

The initial findings offer novel perspectives on the relationship between star formation and the evolution of galaxies.

The James Webb Space Telescope allowed astronomers ... That strongly suggests we're looking at the accretion disks around supermassive black holes. Webb's Little Red Dots Credit: NASA, ESA ...

One possible answer is inside-out growth: As star formation within a galaxy expands outward from the nucleus, less gas is being deposited by supernovas near the accreting black hole, and it ...

However, new insights from the James Webb telescope, which orbits 1 million miles away from Earth, suggests the light from the dots is actually generated by active black holes, also known as ...

The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) has detected a flare from the supermassive black hole at the center of the Milky Way — and it could help explain why these strange outbursts occur.. Sagittarius A ...

This is a clear sign of a flattened cloud of gas and dust called an accretion disk feeding a supermassive black hole in a central ... explanation could be the "inside-out" growth of galaxies.

Using the James Webb Space ... supermassive black holes." Stars form when massive clouds of cold hydrogen gas collapse under the weight of their gravity. As the density of matter inside the ...
