Dwarf Galaxies News Today

The James Webb Space Telescope investigated low-mass galaxies from the early universe, finding most of these dwarf galaxies' light drove a vital phase of cosmic evolution.

With the help of a magnifying glass 4 million lightyears wide, astronomers may have solved the riddle of what burned away the hydrogen fog that pervaded the early universe.

Astronomers using the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) have discovered a massive galaxy that's so old its existence should be impossible, posing a challenge to current theoretical models on dark matter. As detailed in a new study published in the journal Nature, the so-called quiescent galaxy, ZF-UDS-7329, contains more stars than the Milky Way — […]

New observations of the Small Magellanic Cloud show that it might actually be two galaxies disguised as one.

For the first time since its discovery, scientists have found stars within the Magellanic Stream, a mighty river of hydrogen gas emanating from two small galaxies in the outskirts of the Milky Way.

Conditions within dwarf galaxies initially produce more stellar-mass black holes than supernova explosions.

University of Michigan researchers discover a 10-million-year delay in gas expulsion from dwarf galaxies, influencing prolonged star formation and offering cosmic dawn insights. Read the article for more details.

Thousands of disk galaxies like our own Milky Way were spotted in the early universe, where they shouldn't exist.

The Webb telescope used its near-infrared camera to capture stunning details.

Coronas have been previously observed around distant dwarf galaxies, but this recent discovery is the most detailed probe astronomers ever performed
