The Party's Over for These Youthful Compact Galaxies Researchers using NASA's Hubble Space Telescope and Chandra X-ray Observatory have uncovered young, massive, compact galaxies whose raucous star-making parties are ending early. The firestorm of star birth has blasted out most of the remai...

Chinese scientists confirm dark matter not detected A study published by China Dark Matter Experiment in scientific journal Physical Review D has disproved a lab result in 2011 about areas where dark matter might exist Read more

New dark matter experiments prepare to hunt the unknown This month, three new experiments take significant steps in the hunt for dark matter, the elusive substance that appears to make up more than a quarter of the universe, but interacts very rarely with the matter that makes up our world. The exper...
