When a #star like our #sun reaches the end of its life, it can ingest the surrounding #planets and #asteroids that were born with it. Now, using the #EuropeanSouthernObservatory's #VeryLargeTelescope (#ESO's #VLT) in Chile, #researchers have found a unique signature of this process for the first time—a scar imprinted on the surface of a #whitedwarfstar.

A new #study claims that revising the #standardcosmologicalmodel is not necessary. However, #astronomers may have to revisit what they understand about how the #firstgalaxies formed and evolved.

#Simulations that track the formation of #smallgalaxies after the #BigBang and include, for the first time, previously neglected interactions between #gas and #darkmatter show that the galaxies created are very tiny, much brighter, and form more quickly than they do in typical simulations that don't take these interactions into account.

Because of their size and abundance, supermassive #blackholes must have formed early in #cosmichistory. But how early is still an unanswered question. It's a focus of a recent study on the arXiv preprint server.
