A team of astronomers from Canada and the United States has used the ALMA Telescope to study the often deadly relationship between highly luminous O-type stars and nearby protostars in the Orion Nebula.
Astronomers using the ALMA telescope have discovered the splattered remains of comets colliding together around a nearby star.
Astronomers have found more than 100 small, dwarf galaxies with characteristics indicating that they harbor massive black holes feeding on surrounding gas.
Galaxies can be remarkably dusty places and supernovas are thought to be a primary source of that dust, especially in the early Universe.
Massive stars – those at least 8 times the mass of our Sun – present an intriguing mystery: how…
Astronomers using the combined power of the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) telescope and NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope have…
At a cosmologically crisp one degree Kelvin, the Boomerang Nebula is the coldest known object in the Universe.
Two teams of researchers using the ALMA telescope have made remarkably detailed observations of supermassive black holes caught in the act of ingesting matter and converting it into powerful jets of particles and energy.
