The ESA's Euclid Space Telescope is built to measure the redshift of huge numbers of galaxies. The goal is to understand dark matter, dark energy, and the expansion of the Universe.

Scientists know that plate tectonics play an important role in maintaining Earth's habitability.

Nine years ago, Universe Today reported on upcoming super telescopes that were set to revolutionize astronomy.

The galaxy Centaurus A is about 11 million light years away and is the fifth brightest galaxy in the sky.

Hayabusa 2's primary mission is well in the past, now. JAXA's asteroid sampling spacecraft rendezvoused with asteroid Ryugu back in June 2018.

A speculative paper argues that ancient planetary flybys may have helped trigger some of Earth’s mass extinctions.

Peak star formation took place during the Cosmic Noon between two to three billion years after the Big Bang.
