On November 24th, 2021, NASA launched the Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) mission to explore the possibility of altering the orbit of an asteroid, should the need ever arise to prevent a potential impact with Eart

Current planetary formation models propose that as the gas and dust around a young star cools, refractory materials begin to condense.

Our standard model of cosmology, known as ΛCDM, is predicated on the existence of dark matter (DM), introduced to explain a variety of observational discrepancies, such as the unexpectedly fast rotation of galaxies, gravi

Ultra-hot Jupiters (UHJs) are a class of exoplanets that are both massive and extremely hot, making them prime targets for atmospheric characterisation.

The cosmic web is among the largest structures in the universe, spanning a network of nodes interconnected by filaments.

Superclusters are among the largest known structures in the universe, consisting of groups of galaxy clusters.

One of the key questions in modern cosmology is determining the precise value of the Hubble parameter (H₀), which describes the linear relationship between an object's recession velocity and its distance.

It is not quite understood why we are able to observe supermassive black holes (SMBHs) early in our universe’s history. Leading theories can be separated into two camps.

Once a star has exhausted the nuclear fuel available in its core, it can no longer exert the necessary outward pressure to counteract the gravitational pressure from its own mass.

Since its launch in late 2021, the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) has revolutionized our view of the universe, giving us unprecedented details of distant galaxies and stars.
