Astronomers uncover the earliest known signs of galaxy-building in action

Astronomers at Durham University have made a major advance in understanding how galaxies formed and evolved in the early universe. Using powerful new observations, the team discovered the most distant example ever found of a compact, star-forming structure at the heart of a galaxy, dating back more than 9 billion years.

‘Come on man’: BWC shows traffic stop of Nev. governor in Las Vegas

The video shows a traffic stop of former Clark County sheriff and current Nevada Governor Joe Lombardo in an incident where an officer said he failed to stop at a red light

Video: Mich. deputies rescue boys from upstairs window during house fire

The Oakland County deputy used a trash can beneath the window to reach the children; He was then able to help the boys through the window and lower them to the ground

With an eye toward exploration, researchers map moon’s regolith thickness

New research by lunar scientists from Brown University provides critical new insights into the thickness of the moon’s regolith, the layer of loose dust and rock that drapes the entire lunar surface.

VLA sky survey sets new standard for high-resolution, wide-area radio astronomy

The U.S. National Science Foundation National Radio Astronomy Observatory (NSF NRAO) has completed observations for the Very Large Array Sky Survey (VLASS), the most detailed radio survey of the sky ever conducted, providing an unprecedented view of the dynamic radio universe.

Roman telescope will spot distant black holes that shred stars

How do black holes at the centers of galaxies form and grow over time? To answer this question, scientists need to detect and study supermassive black holes at great distances that existed much earlier in the universe’s history. New research suggests NASA’s Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope, which is on track to launch Aug. 30, 2026, will be able to detect these distant, ancient black holes that existed up to 11 billion years ago.

New atomic trap boosts quantum performance by using surface forces

Researchers at Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin have developed a new method for trapping and controlling atoms near an ultrathin glass fiber. This has significantly improved the atoms’ ability to store quantum information—an important step forward for future quantum technologies.

Deputy U.S. Marshal fatally shot while serving arrest warrant in La., suspect in custody

The suspect in the shooting was taken into custody after a lengthy standoff, according to the Rapides Parish Sheriff’s Office, which was involved in the warrant service

US-Russian crew blast off for 8-month stint on the International Space Station

A U.S.-Russian space crew blasted off successfully Tuesday on a mission to the International Space Station.

The spin of Pluto’s moon, Charon, may be slowing down

Evidence of the slowing of Charon’s spin period (despinning) is recorded in tectonic features on the surface of Pluto’s icy moon, according to a modeling study published in Nature Communications. The findings offer insights into the early thermal evolution of Charon and other icy satellites in the outer solar system.

Magnetic fingerprint of a cosmic explosion detected for the first time

Astronomers have made a series of landmark observations of one of the universe’s most violent events. Using the U.S. National Science Foundation Very Large Array (NSF VLA) radio telescope, which is operated by the U.S. National Science Foundation National Radio Astronomy Observatory (NSF NRAO), the team detected polarized light from a gamma-ray burst (GRB) afterglow for the first time at radio wavelengths.

World-first neutron lens brings sharp focus to structures inside materials and objects

Researchers at Paul Scherrer Institute (PSI) have developed the world’s first achromatic lens for neutron imaging. The lens overcomes a longstanding obstacle in the field: focusing neutrons of different wavelengths well enough to form a sharp, magnified image. With the lens, researchers can now image thick samples and follow processes inside bulky equipment such as furnaces, cryostats or pressure cells.

How the SKA will use fast radio bursts to decode the universe

There are parts of the universe that are extremely hard to see, even for our most advanced telescopes. Gas and dust don’t emit light and are visible only by the light they block from stars and galaxies. Magnetic fields are even harder to detect because ordinary light typically passes right through them. However, according to a new paper available on the arXiv preprint server by Manisha Caleb of the University of Sydney and their co-authors, a potentially game-changing new tool being commissioned could use a particularly violent astronomical phenomenon to provide new insight into these hard-to-see places.
