The cracks in cosmology were supposed to take a while to appear. But when the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) opened its lens last spring, extremely distant yet very bright galaxies immediately ...

Clusters of hundreds or thousands of galaxies sit at the intersections of giant, crisscrossing filaments of matter that form the tapestry of the cosmos. As gravity pulls everything in each galaxy ...

How rapidly is the universe expanding? Since Edwin Hubble first discovered in 1929 that galaxies are getting farther apart over time, allowing scientists to trace the evolution of the universe back to ...

New research suggests an unseen 'mirror world' of particles that interacts with our world only via gravity that might be the key to solving a major puzzle in cosmology today -- the Hubble constant ...

While headlines around the world claimed that ancient galaxies discovered by the James Webb Space Telescope were "breaking" our understanding of the Big Bang, the truth is much more nuanced — and much ...

Discoveries on the grandest scale in the cosmos, as well as findings a bit closer to home, share this year’s Nobel Prize in Physics. Cosmologist James Peebles of Princeton University won half the ...

A cosmic mystery that is one of the most significant open questions in physics may finally have been solved. The two main methods of measuring the universe’s rate of expansion have long been in ...

In collaboration with a private foundation, Herder & Herder Publishers is launching a landmark initiative for the development of a Christian cosmology based on reality as process, to replace the ...

Brian Cox explains why cosmology can feel truly terrifying 🌌. From the vastness of the universe to humanity’s tiny place ...
