Image: When a large nearby object, such as a galaxy, blocks a distant object, such as another galaxy, the light can detour around the blockage. But instead of taking a single path, light can bend ...

Scientists have discovered a giant cosmic filament where galaxies spin in sync with the structure that holds them together.

A new JCAP study tests an “emulator” to reconstruct the large-scale structure of the cosmos If you think a galaxy is big, compare it to the size of the Universe: it’s just a tiny dot which, together ...

Newly discovered Quipu, a superstructure in which galaxies group together in clusters and clusters of clusters, is the largest known structure in the universe in terms of length, scientists claim.

“The cosmos is also within us, we're made of star-stuff. We are a way for the cosmos to know itself.” - Carl Sagan Compared to the Sun, how big is the Earth? What is a scale model and how does it help ...

Some of the earliest galaxies found with JWST are also the brightest. That's a problem for our ideas about the universe. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an affiliate ...

Ian G. McCarthy receives funding from UKRI's Science and Technology Facilities Council (STFC). He works for Liverpool John Moores University. Given how unfathomably large the universe is, it is ...
