New collection of stars, not born in our galaxy, discovered in Milky Way
Jul 7, 2020
Nyx, a vast new stellar stream in the vicinity of the Sun, may provide the first indication that a dwarf galaxy had merged with the Milky Way disk.

Galaxy simulations are at last matching reality—and producing surprising insights into cosmic evolution
May 30, 2018
For decades, scientists have tried to simulate how the trillions of galaxies in the observable universe arose from clouds of gas after the big bang. But in the past few years, thanks to faster computers and better algorithms, the simulations have begun to produce results that accurately capture both the details of individual galaxies and their overall distribution of masses and shapes.
