Browse all the latest astronomy and space news on planets, stars, galaxies, cosmology, observing events, space missions, and more.

This image shows the star-studded center of the Milky Way towards the constellation of Sagittarius. The most famous cosmic object in this image still remains invisible: the monster at our galaxy’s heart called Sagittarius A*. Astronomers have observed stars spinning around this supermassive black hole (located right in the center of the image), and the black hole consuming clouds of dust as it affects its environment with its enormous gravitational pull.
