Hubble finds hundreds of young galaxies in the early Universe
Astronomers analysing two of the deepest views of the cosmos made with the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope have uncovered a gold mine of galaxies, more than 500, that existed less than a thousand million years after the Big Bang. view more (2006-09-25)
Old galaxies stick together in the young universe
UK astronomers have developed the most sensitive infrared map of the distant universe ever produced, revealing the origins of the most massive galaxies in the cosmos. view more (2008-04-07)
Penn State Researchers Look Beyond the Birth of the Universe
According to Einstein's general theory of relativity, the Big Bang represents The Beginning, the grand event at which not only matter but space-time itself was born. view more (2006-05-15)
New evidence for dark energy in the universe
An international team of astronomers, led by scientists at the University of Manchester have produced new evidence that most of the energy in the Universe is in the form of the mysterious "Dark Energy". The new evidence comes from a 10-year census of the sky for examples of gravitational lenses, which are seen when a galaxy bends the light from a... view more... (2002-11-09)
Hubble finds hundreds of young galaxies in the early universe
The discovery is scientifically invaluable for understanding the origin of galaxies, considering that just a decade ago early galaxy formation was largely uncharted territory. view more (2006-09-22)
CERN scientists predict supernova
A team of theoretical physicists working at CERN and the Technion Institute of Technology in Israel has developed a theory to account for the mysterious gamma ray bursts that come from the depths of the Universe. According to their ideas, gamma ray bursts are linked to supernovae, the cataclysmic explosions of massive stars at the end of their... view more... (2003-04-15)
Universe's oldest objects emerge from the background
The deepest reaches of space are permeated by a cloak of infrared radiation, an uneven energy swath generated by long-dead objects from the early universe. view more (2006-12-20)
Hubble and Spitzer Space Telescopes find 'Lego-block' galaxies in early universe
The conventional model for galaxy evolution predicts that small galaxies in the early Universe evolved into the massive galaxies of today by coalescing. Nine Lego-like "building block" galaxies initially detected by Hubble likely contributed to the construction of the Universe as we know it. view more (2007-09-07)
Exceptionally deep view of strange galaxy
A spectacular new image of an unusual spiral galaxy in the Coma Galaxy Cluster has been created from data taken by the Advanced Camera for Surveys on the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope. view more (2009-02-06)
Study sheds new light on early star formation in the universe
A groundbreaking study has provided new insight into the way the first stars were formed at the start of the Universe, some 13 billion years ago. view more (2007-09-14)
First Stars Seen In Distant Galaxies
UK and US astronomers have used the Spitzer Space Telescope and the Hubble Space Telescope to detect light coming from the first stars to form in some of the most distant galaxies yet seen. view more (2005-04-02)
Chandra catches 'piranha' black holes
Supermassive black holes have been discovered to grow more rapidly in young galaxy clusters, according to new results from NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory. view more (2007-07-25)
Earth not center of the universe, surrounded by 'dark energy': UBC cosmologists
Earth's location in the Universe is utterly unremarkable, despite recent theories that propose toppling a foundation of modern cosmology, according to a team of University of British Columbia researchers. view more (2008-12-19)
Old Galaxies in the Young Universe
Very Large Telescope Unravels New Population of Very Old Massive Galaxies [1] Current theories of the formation of galaxies are based on the hierarchical merging of smaller entities into larger and larger structures, starting from about the size of a stellar globular cluster and ending with clusters of galaxies. According to this scenario, it is... view more... (2004-07-06)
New satellite data on universe's first trillionth second
Scientists peering back to the oldest light in the universe have new evidence for what happened within its first trillionth of a second, when the universe suddenly grew from submicroscopic to astronomical size in far less than a wink of the eye. view more (2006-03-17)
Press invitation: Big bucks for Big Bang scientists
A £1.7 million science laboratory for studying one of the great mysteries of the Universe opens at the University of Sussex on May 14, 2002. The Centre for the Measurement of Particle Electric Dipole Moments has been equipped with the very latest technology to help scientists discover what happened in the aftermath of the 'Big Bang'. Ed... view more... (2002-05-07)
Galaxy Zoo hunters help astronomers discover rare 'Green Pea' galaxies
A team of astronomers has discovered a group of rare galaxies called the "Green Peas" with the help of citizen scientists working through an online project called Galaxy Zoo. The finding could lend unique insights into how galaxies form stars in the early universe. view more (2009-07-28)
Supercomputer could throw light on 'mysterious' dark energy
Cosmologists have run a series of huge computer simulations of the Universe that could ultimately help solve the mystery of dark energy. view more (2008-01-11)
Invitation to the Media - String virtuosos gather in Oxford - 1st International Conference on String Phenomenology
Next week the University of Oxford is hosting a meeting of string experts - not in this case well-known musicians, but internationally renowned scientists. The meeting will bring together physicists who are striving to develop a consistent theory of the nature of matter - in other words, the basic building bricks of ourselves and the Universe we... view more...

Texas A&M researchers examine Einstein's theories on the universe
Einstein's self-proclaimed "biggest blunder" - his postulation of a cosmological constant (a force that opposes gravity and keeps the universe from collapsing) - may not be such a blunder after all, according to the research of an international team of scientists that includes two Texas A&M University researchers. view more (2007-11-28)
