A new "border" of the galaxy

Thanks to the telescope "Hubble" discovered galaxy, at a distance of 13.3 billion light years from Earth.

Scientists working with the space telescope "Hubble" and "Spitzer" discovered galaxy, which would be a record for the distance from the Earth.

Scientists have found a way to cool down the black hole

Samuel Grall and Alexander Le Tick the University of Maryland simulated a scenario in which the orbit of the black hole is placed satellite circling it with the same speed with which rotates itself a hole - so that the two objects remain fixed relative to each other.

Thus, they reproduce the conditions under which for those in the motion of the black holes can test the hypothesis made earlier by Stephen Hawking to the contingent of static black holes.

The maternity boxing star PDS 70

Astronomers have discovered a budding system of planets. Artistic representation of an image PDS 70.Infrakrasnoe protoplanetary disk PDS 70, received a tool HiCIAO. The picture shows a dark empty area near the star.

At a distance of 460 light-years from Earth, the planetary system formed. Found”new-born” Japanese scientists. 

Google has created a virtual map of the galaxy

Google has released an application for discover the universe:

The developers of the team Google Data Arts Team, the project created a beautiful Chrome Experiments demo 100,000 stars ", which shows the actual location of more than 100 thousand around the stars, the sun.

The development team Google Data Arts has released a new, experimental application for the browser Chrome, offers a virtual tour of our local stellar neighborhood.

The close pair of stars surrounded by a "mysterious dust"

Astronomers have discovered a curious disk of gas and dust surrounding a system of two stars, the origin of which scientists cannot explain the basis of the standard models of planetary evolution.

A binary star system (with a simple name of SDSS J0303 +0054) is composed of white and red dwarfs, separated by distance of about 700,000 kilometers, the distance between the two stars is a very small value. 

Telescope "Kepler" has completed the basic mission

Space telescope, "Kepler", designed to search for planets outside the solar system, has completed the major part of their mission, but will continue for another four years. The announcement was published on the website NASA.

For three and a half years of the Space Telescope, scientists were able to detect more than two thousand objects candidates for the title of exoplanets. 

Found near the Orion Nebula star cluster

Star cluster, which had previously been measured part of the spectacular Orion Nebula, is actually a separate creature, located in front of the nebula, according to a new study.

Scientists are using the Canada-French-Hawaii Telescope, located in Hawaii, discovered that the star cluster NGC 1980 is a separate group of massive stars in front of the Orion Nebula, which lies at a distance of about 1,500 light-years away and is one of the closest Earth "stellar nurseries". Accumulation unevenly scattered around the star iota Orion, located in the southern part of the "sword" of the constellation Orion.
