The clearest and most precise images yet of the universe’s infancy from the Atacama Cosmology Telescope show the first steps toward the first stars and galaxies.

They show the cosmos when it was just 380,000 years old — much like seeing baby pictures of our now middle-aged universe. At that time, our universe emitted the cosmic microwave background as it ...

NEW YORK (AP) — A European space telescope launched to explore the dark universe has released a trove of new data on distant galaxies.

Experts have unveiled the most detailed images yet of the universe’s infancy, capturing light that traveled for more than 13 ...

If our 13.8 billion-year-old cosmos could be considered middle-aged, researchers note these new images captured around its 380,000th birthday represent a snapshot of the universe as a newborn.

Cosmic microwave background data support cosmology’s standard model but retain a mystery about the universe’s expansion rate.

The images received from this telescope are known as the cosmic microwave background, and they provide an exceptionally clear ...
