Astronomers using the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI), a state-of-the-art instrument mounted on NSF’s Nicholas U. Mayall 4-m telescope at Kitt Peak National Observatory, have mapped how nearly 6 million galaxies cluster across 11 billion years of cosmic history. Their results provide one of the most stringent tests yet of Albert Einstein’s general theory of

Using the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA), astronomers have captured high-resolution images of eight protoplanetary disks in Sigma Orionis, a star cluster irradiated by intense ultraviolet light from a massive star. To their surprise, they’ve found evidence of gaps and rings in most of the disks — substructures commonly associated with the formation of giant
