"Dark matter could be captured by stars and accumulate inside them. If that happens, it might also interact with itself and ...

Brown dwarfs are too small to sustain the nuclear fusion that powers most stars, so they cool and fade over time. But if they ...

A new kind of cosmic object could help solve one of the universe's greatest mysteries: dark matter.Particle Astrophysicists have proposed the ...

Don’t call them Duergar—they’re dark dwarfs. A new study published in the Journal of Cosmology and Astroparticle Physics (JCAP) proposes that the core of our galaxy is full of an all-new category of ...

Astronomers have studied the globular cluster 47 Tucanae extensively, but still have many questions. It may have an ...

Dark matter remains one of science's deepest mysteries. It makes up about 25% of our universe, yet scientists only observe ...

Dark matter is one of Nature’s most confounding mysteries. It keeps particle physicists up at night and cosmologists glued to their supercomputer simulations. We know it’s real because its mass ...

If you thought that the Milky Way was just your average run-of-the-mill galaxy, you’d be wrong. Turns out that it’s quite the ...

Are we living in a cosmic void? New theory suggests our galaxy sits in a giant hole warping the universe's expansion.

According to a provocative new study, that might just be our cosmic address. This idea is meant to solve one of the biggest ...
