Hiding in plain sight: Elusive dark matter may be detected with GPS satellites Posted: 17 Nov 2014 12:47 PM PST The everyday use of a GPS device might be to find your way around town or even navigate a hiking trail, but for two physicists, the Global Positioning System might be a tool in directly detecting and measuring dark matter, so far an elusive but ubiquitous form of matter responsible for the formation of galaxies.

Mission to discover hundreds of black holes could unlock secrets of the Universe Posted: 14 Nov 2014 05:56 AM PST Researchers have made a breakthrough in helping scientists discover hundreds of black holes throughout the universe. When two detectors are switched on in the US next year, scientists hope to pick up the faint ripples of black hole collisions millions of years ago, known as gravitational waves. Black holes cannot be seen, but scientists hope the revamped detectors -- which act like giant microphones -- will find remnants of black hole collisions.

Proposed 'wide view' Hubble Space Telescope Posted: 14 Nov 2014 09:44 AM PST Scientists are working on a proposed NASA space telescope that will provide images as sharp as the Hubble Space Telescope, but over a hundred times larger area. The space observatory, called the Wide-Field Infrared Survey Telescope-Astrophysics Focused Telescope Assets (WFIRST-AFTA), is being studied for launch in the mid-2020s, pending program approval by NASA.

Intergalactic 'wind' is stripping galaxies of star-forming gas Posted: 13 Nov 2014 12:29 PM PST Astronomers have provided the first direct evidence that an intergalactic 'wind' is stripping galaxies of star-forming gas as they fall into clusters of galaxies. The observations help explain why galaxies found in clusters are known to have relatively little gas and less star formation when compared to non-cluster or 'field' galaxies.

The party's over for these youthful compact galaxies Posted: 13 Nov 2014 11:00 AM PST Scientists have uncovered young, massive, compact galaxies whose raucous star-making parties are ending early. The firestorm of star birth has blasted out most of the remaining gaseous fuel needed to make future generations of stars. Now the party's over for these gas-starved galaxies, and they are on track to possibly becoming so-called "red and dead galaxies," composed only of aging stars.

Magnetic fields frozen into meteorite grains tell a shocking tale of solar system birth Posted: 13 Nov 2014 11:21 AM PST Astrophysicists say that magnetic clues in a meteorite outline the earliest steps in the formation of the solar system and Earth-like planets.
