This enormous chain of hundreds of galaxies—a cosmic filament—is twisting through space 400 million light-years away ...

These three galaxy images from the AEGIS survey show a range of galaxy types: a disk-like spiral galaxy (top), a cloud-like elliptical galaxy (middle), and an irregular galaxy resulting from a ...

Intense radiation emitted by active supermassive black holes—thought to reside at the center of most, if not all, galaxies—can slow star growth not just in their host galaxy, but also in galaxies ...

COSMOS-Web was the largest General Observer program selected by the James Webb Space Telescope for Cycle 1. The team, led by RIT Associate Professor Jeyhan Kartaltepe, has publicly released its full ...
