A frame from the Illustris simulation shows a huge galaxy cluster at the center. The red, orange and white colors show hot gas, while the blue and purple filaments represent a cosmic structure of dark matter. Credit: Illustris Collaboration The game is underway! Astronomers may have found some of the universe’s missing matter, thanks to

Haribo is making its first appearance in the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade, but it is a return to space for the company’s gummi candies, which have a history of flying as space food and astronaut playthings.

AB7 in the Small Magellanic Cloud is a binary system composed of two stars, one near the end of its life and the other middle-aged, with immensely powerful winds. Simulations show that such winds could help a star survive if its companion exploded in a supernova that produces a black hole. Credit: ESO The European

The Pablo Galaxy is a distant galaxy in the early universe whose central supermassive black hole is starving it of the gas needed to create new stars.
