A newly-detected spinning galaxy filament is reshaping our understanding of cosmic structure, gas flows, and the origins of ...
The filament of matter stretches 50 million light-years, and contains a row of galaxies 5.5 million light-years long that are rotating in sync with the filament.
The largest spinning structure ever seen was a giant rotating filament of the cosmic web, a rotation with clues about how galaxies formed.
Researchers have found a razor-thin, rotating string of galaxies inside a massive cosmic filament, revealing unexpected ...
Scientists have observed the largest-known rotating structure in the cosmos – a gargantuan thread-like assemblage of hundreds of galaxies, gas and dark matter that makes up a filament in the ...
A giant rotating filament of the cosmic web may be the largest spinning structure ever seen, and could help reveal how galaxies form.
An international team led by the University of Oxford has identified one of the largest rotating structures ever reported: a “razor-thin” string of galaxies embedded in a giant spinning cosmic ...
These gigantic structures, which contain hundreds or even thousands of galaxies bound together by gravity, offer important ...
Razor-thin chain of 14 galaxies may be the biggest spinning structure yet ...
An international team of researchers says it has spotted the largest rotating structure of dark matter and gas-rich galaxies.
Scientists have released a new study that catalogues the universe by mapping huge clusters of galaxies. These clusters are some of the largest known objects in the universe — and they can help ...
A team of astronomers looking at galaxies in the universe’s distant past have discovered nine young, compact galaxies, each weighing in at 200 billion times the mass of the Sun. Imagine receiving an ...
