Tour: NASA's Chandra Finds Galaxy Cluster That Crosses the Streams (09-19-2024)
A galaxy has streams of superheated gas crossing one another. This result shows that "crossing the streams" does not necessarily end in disaster. In fact, it may lead to the creation of new structures.

Tour: Stellar Beads on a String (02-21-2024)
Astronomers have discovered one of the most powerful eruptions from a black hole ever recorded. This mega-explosion may help explain the formation of a striking pattern of star clusters around two massive galaxies, resembling "beads on a string."
