An intriguing fact that has been discovered in the past decade is that at least half of the 11 most distant stars in our galaxy are far from the spiral disk of our Milky Way.

American researchers believe that the apparent lack of extraterrestrial life so far is that planets similar to ours have not yet had the chance to fully form.

The end of the Universe will happen in 2 stages, theorize scientists. The 1st will begin when the last red dwarf is snuffed out in the cosmic expanse. This will bring about absolute darkness.

The Milky Way galaxy is found in the Laniakea supercluster, which translated from Hawaiian means immeasurable heaven . The galaxy supercluster was unknown to scientists until now.

British scientists have managed to measure the weight of the Milky Way. It turns out that the mass of our galaxy is equal to half the mass of Andromeda - the galaxy neighboring our Milky Way.

The signal was captured a few days ago and experts have managed to determine the exact spot from which it came. It is believed that the signal comes from the Perseus cluster, one of the largest objects in the universe.

Two of the three supermassive black holes of J1502+1115 form a tight binary system, which orbits the common center of mass of the 3rd black hole.

The M82 Cigar Galaxy, located 12 million light-years from Earth, was shaken by a powerful supernova explosion. Experts have labeled it as a Type Ia supernova, which occurs in binary star systems of a white dwarf and red giant.

After 12-year studies of the massive stars, American researchers confirmed that the Milky Way has a 4th spiral arm. It is believed that there are also remains of dwarf galaxies found in the Milky Way.
