Astronomers from South Africa have conducted multi-band observations of a nearby dwarf irregular galaxy known as UGCA 320. Results of the observational campaign, recently published on the arXiv preprint server, yield important insights into the nature of this galaxy....
For decades, scientists engaged in the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence (SETI) have probed the galaxy for signs of artificial radio transmissions. Beginning with Project Ozma in 1960, astronomers have used radio antennas to listen for possible transmissions...
Scientists digging through data collected by the Cassini spacecraft have found new complex organic molecules spewing from Saturn’s moon Enceladus. This is a clear sign that complex chemical reactions are taking place within its underground ocean. Some of these...
