In a recent study, an international team of astronomers presents the discovery of PSO J172.3556+18.7734—a highly accreting radio-loud quasar at a redshift of approximately 6.82. This is the most distant radio-loud quasar ...
Using India's AstroSat spacecraft, astronomers have inspected ultraviolet (UV) bright sources in a globular cluster known as NGC 4590 and identified more than 1,400 stellar objects presenting various evolutionary status. ...
(PhysOrg.com) -- Until now, astronomers have used telescopes to find Kuiper Belt objects (KBOs), moon-sized bodies, and obtain their spectra to determine what types of ices are on their surface. They have also used thermal-imaging ...
