[ad_1] New Delhi: Astronomers used the James Webb Space Telescope to discover a variety of molecules in and around early-stage protostars where planets have not yet formed. The molecules ranged from simple ones like methane to complex compounds like acetic acid (the acid in vinegar) and ethanol (which is an alcohol). Some of these are … Read more

[ad_1] Evidence that the first generation of stars existed in the universe has come to light thanks to observations made by the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST). The proof is found in one of the most distant galaxies known. The galaxy, named GN-z11, was discovered by the Hubble Space Telescope in 2015 and, before the … Read more
[ad_1] Scientists make constant efforts to discover the secrets of the history of the universe. The universe reportedly hasn’t been this bright since its beginnings and experienced the “Dark Ages,” when thick gases clouded the rays of light emanating from the stars. So today let’s take a look at how our space transformed from a … Read more
[ad_1] Using the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), astronomers have put an end to a nearly decade-long game of celestial hide-and-seek after they discovered a neutron star among the remains of a stellar explosion. Supernova 1987A represents the remains of an exploded star that once had a mass between 8 and 10 times that of … Read more
