Scientists have discovered an ultra-large structure in the distant universe that calls into question our understanding of the cosmos. The newly uncovered "Big Ring on the Sky" is the second ...

In the vast expanse of the universe, astronomers have just uncovered a colossal cosmic structure, breaking all previous ...

The vast realm probed by radio astronomers is one invisible to the naked eye, and even most kinds of telescopes. Now, thanks to the latest advances in radio observatories, scientists are uncovering an ...

The largest known structure in the Universe may be even larger than the large we thought it was. A re-examination of the distribution of powerful space explosions suggests that the Hercules-Corona ...

A team of researchers believe they have identified a large, rotating structure 140 million light-years away from Earth. The structure, embedded within a larger filament, appears to challenge current ...

For years, scientists have worked to chart the universe’s massive structure, aiming to test key models of cosmology. These efforts also help uncover how galaxies form and change over time. While most ...
