An international study led by astronomers from Swinburne University of Technology has created the most detailed maps of gravitational waves across the universe to date. The study has also produced ...

The most detailed map of the universe ever created using gravitational waves could reveal hidden black holes, merging supermassive black holes and even the large-scale structure of the cosmos.

This is called the “heat death” of the Universe, but you can think of it instead as the death of heat. There will be no more ...

A new effort to map the rumblings in spacetime caused by enormous black hole collisions paints a surprisingly loud and lopsided picture of the universe. Using the largest gravitational wave ...

Scientists have constructed the largest 3-D map of our universe to date, and it's come with a couple of interesting surprises. "So far, we're seeing basic agreement with our best model of the ...

Behold the hot, energetic Universe. A German-Russian space telescope has just acquired a breakthrough map of the sky that traces the heavens in X-rays. The image records a lot of the violent ...

The telescope will catalogue billions of new objects and produce a new map of the entire night sky every three days with the ...

One reason it is hard to learn the geography of the local universe is that it is 3-D. A map, as a 2-D object, is easy to spread out on a table so you can learn 2-D relationships between places.

Last year Kollmeier was named director of the fifth version of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey, a project that aims to map the universe. The survey, which launches in 2020, will employ telescopes in ...
