The VLA made the first detection of radio waves coming from the neutron-star collision that generated a ripple of gravitational waves. Radio telescopes will continue to reveal new facts about this phenomenon in the coming months.
Astronomers from a Canadian consortium will develop a data center to perform advanced processing of VLA Sky Survey data to augment its scientific value.
A new, all-sky survey uses the expanded capabilities of the VLA to produce a unique and valuable resource for astronomers of all specialties.
VLA observations of distant galaxy provide important new clues about how magnetic fields originate and influence the development of galaxies.
New evidence from the VLA suggests that a jet of material ejected by a young star may have triggered the formation of a second, younger star.
New VLA images are helping astronomers understand the origin of a giant radio-emitting structure in a cluster of galaxies.
Astronomers were surprised when the VLA revealed that a bright new object has appeared near the core of a famous galaxy. They think it’s a second supermassive black hole, indicating that the galaxy has merged with another in the past.
Astronomers produced a dramatic new image of the famous Crab Nebula by combining data from five different telescopes spanning the breadth of the electromagnetic spectrum.
For the first time, astronomers have pinpointed the location in the sky of a Fast Radio Burst, allowing them to determine the distance and home galaxy of one of these mysterious pulses of radio waves.
Astronomers have gotten their first look at exactly where most of today’s stars were born.
