The cosmos is a realm filled with numerous celestial phenomena, and one of the most intriguing among them is the Dark Nebula. Unlike their more famous counterparts, the bright, glowing emission nebulae, dark nebulae are more enigmatic, cloaking themselves in veils of gas and dust. They don’t produce their own light; instead, they are identified […]
CEERS survey presented a collection of pictures in a video form and this video shows pictures of thousands of galaxies taken by NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope. It’s part of a big project called the CEERS Survey. The video starts by showing galaxies near Earth and then moves on to far-away galaxies. These faraway galaxies […]
From our cosmic backyard in the solar system to faraway galaxies near the beginning of time, NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope has done what it said it would in its first year of science operations to show us the universe as we’ve never seen it before. NASA shared a picture of small Sun-like stars forming […]
The NASA/ESA/CSA James Webb Space Telescope has captured this incredible image of a galaxy NGC 3256. Situated approximately 120 million light-years away in the Vela constellation, this galaxy, similar in size to our Milky Way, resides within the Hydra-Centaurus Supercluster. NGC 3256: A Cosmic Collision Unveils an Interesting Past NGC 3256 appears as a swirling […]
Introduction The dazzling celestial tapestry of our night sky is adorned with countless stars, each with its unique tale of creation and evolution. But have you ever wondered how these celestial luminaries come into existence? In this article, we delve into the fundamentals of Protostars, exploring their formation through gravitational instability and their distinctive characteristics. […]
Stellar evolution tells us how stars are born, live, and die. It tells us about the life of a star in perfect ways. Since a star’s life is too long to watch, that is the reason scientists study many stars in our galaxy at different stages. And by doing this, they combine the whole process. […]

This article delves into the various aspects of Centaurus A, exploring its characteristics, significance in astronomical research, and the mysteries it holds. Discovery and Observation Centaurus A was […]
Introduction to Protoplanetary Disk Studies and Webb’s Role The study of planet formation is a cornerstone of contemporary astrophysics, offering insights into the origins of our solar system and the potential for life-bearing planets elsewhere. NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) represents a paradigm shift in this domain, providing unprecedented clarity on the processes shaping […]
The Tadpole Galaxy, also cataloged as UGC 10214 and Arp 188, is a captivating subject within the celestial sphere that intrigues both the astrophysical community and stargazing enthusiasts. This barred spiral galaxy, found in the constellation Draco, is a spectacle of disruption and creation, offering insights into the processes that govern cosmic evolution. It is […]
The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) has brought us an exciting week with its release of stunning photos of our Universe that reflects the old cosmic times. One of the images allows us to glimpse faint distant galaxies as they appeared over 13 billion years ago. How Old is Our Planet Earth? Today, cosmologists have […]
