Most events in the universe are not fully understood, including the relatively simple process of star formation. Stars form in dense clouds of cold gas and dust. When these clouds reach a threshold ...
Webb data explains how heat-formed crystal minerals end up in icy comets by tracking their journey around a young, actively forming star.
New data from NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope shows where crystalline silicates form around young stars and how disk outflows transport them to colder, outer regions.
New research suggests that essential components of life may assemble in interstellar space long before planets or oceans ...
The vast majority of stars form and reside within galaxies due to the presence of cold, dense molecular gas clouds conducive to star formation. True intergalactic space, characterized by low-density ...
For the first time ever, astronomers revealed the birthplace of an energetic jet blasted by a newborn star using the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) in Chile. When you purchase ...
