• Even Early Galaxies Grew Hand-in-Hand With Their Supermassive Black Holes

    Updated: 2024-01-31 17:46:22
    Almost every galaxy in the local Universe seems to contain a supermassive black hole. There's a direct relationship between the two. Astronomers have wondered if this relationship existed in the Universe's earliest times, just a few hundred million years after the Big Bang. Researchers studied images from JWST and other telescopes to identify the earliest galaxies and their supermassive black holes. Does this relationship extend to the very beginning of the Universe? The post Even Early Galaxies Grew Hand-in-Hand With Their Supermassive Black Holes appeared first on Universe Today.

Impact craters both shape these planetary surfaces and hold the power to create or destroy life , and we learned how exoplanets are changing our views of planetary formation and evolution , including how and where we might find life in the cosmos . Here , we will discuss how these disciplines contribute to the field responsible for

Posted on January 29, 2024 January 29, 2024 by Carolyn Collins Petersen The Space-Based Gravitational Wave Observatory LISA Gets the Green Light The science of studying gravitational waves just got a big boost thanks to the European Space Agency . Its science program committee just approved the Laser Interferometer Space Antenna—affectionately known as LISA—for official planning and building . That means gravitational wave astronomers will take their next steps to capture information about gravity waves from . space LISA—or something like it—has been on the
