Scientists believe they've spotted the biggest wave ever discovered. But before you pull out your surfboard, you should probably know this is a tad bigger than anything you'd find on Earth: this wave ...

Astronomers have solved a cosmic mystery, revealing the long-hidden object that collided with the Perseus cluster in a vast-scale hit-and-run billions of years ago. Composed of thousands of galaxies ...

Scientists using a trio of some of the world’s most powerful observatories, the Hubble Space Telescope, ESA’s Euclid, and the Subaru Telescope, have pulled back the curtain on a ghost galaxy that is ...

The Perseus cluster is a vast swirl of thousands of galaxies, all bound together by gravity. Famed for its unbelievable size — containing the mass of some 600 trillion suns — it also has a reputation ...

X-ray observations made by the Suzaku observatory provide the clearest picture to date of the size, mass, and chemical content of a nearby cluster of galaxies. The study also provides the first direct ...

An X-ray belching mega wave is shooting out from the Perseus galaxy cluster STARGAZERS have discovered a colossal wave – twice the size of our own Milky Way – sweeping through Space. The cosmic ...

Scientists have long theorized about their existence, which has remained hypothetical; they've found galaxies with low surface brightness, and they've found dark galaxy candidates.
