NASA’s Roman Space Telescope launches Aug. 30 aboard Falcon Heavy to map billions of galaxies, hunt exoplanets and investigate dark energy.

James Webb Space Telescope is finding that between the brightest stars, the cosmic skyscrapers, there are much fainter stars, meaning early galaxies are more massive than we believed.

Remember the "Wow!" signal? That high-energy radio signature occurred in 1977, when Earth was much "quieter" in the radio band. If it happened today, it probably wouldn't even move the needle on the background noise of human radio chatter.

Because the planets in our solar system are so bright, they flood the telescope's sensors with more light than they can handle. To get these shots, astronomers have had to use dark filters — akin to wearing solar eclipse glasses — to avoid blinding the camera.

A new James Webb telescope study suggests the universe's enigmatic "little red dots" may not have vanished after all — they may simply look different as we observe them across cosmic time.

The Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope, set to launch at the end of August, is uniquely well-placed to help us spot any dangerous rocks heading our way.

A telescope has spied the fastest known star in our galaxy, racing around the supermassive black hole at the center of the Milky Way.The star is zipping around the black hole, reaching speeds of about 15,
