Astronomers have observed large, highly active Burley spiral galaxies in early universes, and have discovered important similarities and differences with modern galaxies. This improves our understanding of how spiral galaxies grow and evolve, like our own Milky Way galaxies. A team led by Japanese National Astronomer and Nagoya University project researcher Shuo Huang used Atacama’s massive millimeter/sub-millimeter array (ALMA) radio galaxies to observe the large Barred spiral galaxy known as J0107A, known as J0107A, which existed before 11.1 virion. Unique patterns of spiral galaxies Several spiral galaxies, including the Milky Way, show straight bars within the spiral pattern. This bar…

Nuclear fusion – the process that powers the stars – has long captured the imagination of scientists, engineers, and energy experts alike. Unlike nuclear fission, which involves splitting heavy atoms and results in radioactive waste and safety concerns, fusion joins light nuclei, such as hydrogen isotopes, to form heavier elements, releasing vast amounts of energy in the process. With minimal radioactive waste, no carbon emissions, and virtually limitless fuel, fusion represents a potentially transformative source of clean energy. As the world races to meet the dual challenges of climate change and growing energy demands, fusion energy is no longer a…
