“What this discovery gives is an insight into the dynamic, often violent early histories of galaxies,” a Keck Observatory scientist said.

Initially, the team assumed the data was from a single quasar that had been distorted by the gravitational lens, making it appear to be two.

Astronomers have discovered a pair of blazing black hole objects known as quasars on a collision course with one another in the early Universe.

You there, aliens?

The galaxy 3C 297 seems to have destroyed its neighbors, which researchers claim would make it the most distant galaxy of its kind.

Astronomers used the Hubble Space Telescope to find a pair of quasars residing in the cores of two galaxies. They existed when the universe was 3 billion years old.

Astronomers may have found a way to detect an exoplanetary magnetosphere using radio emissions from outbursts at the parent star.

Astronomers have traced a repeating radio signal back to a rocky, Earth-sized exoplanet that appears to have one of the crucial factors that make a world habitable: a magnetic field.
