"These small galaxies punch well above their weight."

Simultaneously cooling Pluto while energizing atmospheric molecules to allow them to escape into space, Pluto's haze plays a key role in the planet's energy balance.

Astronomers unveiled the James Webb Space Telescope's largest view yet of the early universe in a richly detailed catalog of nearly 800,000 galaxies.

Astronomers using the James Webb Space Telescope have uncovered the fiery origin of WASP-121b, a distant exoplanet stretched by tidal forces and rich in chemical clues that reveal its dramatic journey.

A massive galaxy cluster, Abell S1063, forms a gravitation lens, revealing the warped light from more distant galaxies dating back to the early universe in this James Webb Space Telescope image.

The presence of water-ice in the debris disk around a young star could have helped facilitate the growth and development of exoplanets.

Through a citizen science project called Galaxy Zoo, volunteers can help astronomers analyze over 500,000 James Webb Space Telescope images and classify galaxies observed from deep space.

NASA's James Webb Space Telescope has found water vapor swirling in the air of a distant, boiling-hot alien planet, a new study reports.

Astronomers using the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) have confirmed the existence of the first known planet closely orbiting a dead star — offering new insights into how planets may evolve during the final stages of a star's life.

The James Webb Space Telescope has observed surface ice methanol — a key building block for organic compounds necessary for life, including sugars — on trans-Neptunian objects.
