ORCs are vast radio bubbles that engulf many galaxies within them. Thanks to XMM-Newton, astronomers may know the powerful event that gave rise to the Cloverleaf ORC.

Astronomers have discovered enormous circular radio features of unknown origin around some galaxies. Now, new observations of one dubbed the Cloverleaf

(1) INTERNATIONAL REACTION TO HUGO AWARDS CENSORSHIP REPORT. Chris M. Barkley and Jason Sanford’s report “The 2023 Hugo Awards: A Report on Censorship and Exclusion” (also available at Genre Grapevine and as an e-book epub file and as a PDF) has sparked the attention of mass media: . The Guardian: “Authors ‘excluded from Hugo awards over China concerns’”. In

Russian scientists are finding themselves isolated as Russias invasion of Ukraine enters its second month.

The material that billows out from feeding supermassive black holes stretches for thousands of light-years "impacting anything that stands in their way."

SPIE--International Society for Optics and Photonics Recently, the eROSITA (extended Roentgen Survey with an Imaging Telescope Array) x-ray telescope, an instrument developed by a team of scientists at Max-Planck-Institut für Extraterrestrische Physik (MPE), has gained attention among astronomers. The instrument performs an all-sky survey in the x-ray energy band of 0.2-8 kilo electron volts aboard the Spectrum-Roentgen-Gamma (SRG) satellite that was launched in 2019 from the Baikonur cosmodro...

The technical name of this supernova remnant is SNR G249.5+24.5, but the astronomers who discovered it dubbed it Hoinga, after the medieval name of the first authors hometown, Bad Hönningen am Rhein.
