Scientists from Japan's RIKEN research centre have created the most detailed simulation of the Milky Way ever made. The incredible galactic map charts more than 100 billion individual stars over the ...

A recent paper reveals we're almost certainly going to collide with a galaxy in the next couple billion years, but it's not the one we thought. Reading time 2 minutes For over a decade, researchers ...

The most detailed supercomputer simulation ever of our Milky Way galaxy has been created by combining machine learning with numerical models. By running 100 times faster than the next most detailed ...

Researchers combined deep learning with high-resolution physics to create the first Milky Way model that tracks over 100 billion stars individually. Their AI learned how gas behaves after supernovae, ...

Researchers have successfully performed the world's first Milky Way simulation that accurately represents more than 100 billion individual stars over the course of 10 thousand years. This feat was ...

From your place inside the Milky Way, you are living within a galaxy that keeps a detailed chemical diary. Every star holds clues about when it formed and what the galaxy was like at the time. Over ...

Astronomers may have uncovered new details about one of the Milky Way's most important ancient collisions. Using data from ...

Unusual stellar remnants suggest the Milky Way might have eaten a galaxy called Loki billions of years ago, according to new ...

This image shows the gas disc in a computer simulation of a Milky Way-like galaxy from the Auriga suite. Colours represent the ratio of magnesium (Mg) to iron (Fe), revealing that the galactic centre ...

The last galactic fling was billions of years later than previously thought, indicating our galaxy may have more surprises in store. Reading time 2 minutes An artist’s impression of the Gaia ...
