Motivated by predictions that globular clusters associated with nearby giant elliptical galaxies are prime environments for detecting fast radio bursts (FRBs) from magnetars, we report on a targeted h...

Almost two decades after their discovery, pulsars discoverable only through their single, dispersed radio pulses, known as rotating radio transients (RRATS), remain a poorly-understood class of object...

Join us at our new Hawthorne facility for drinks, light bites, and a chance to meet the team, tour the space, and get a closer look at what we have been…

This paper presents the twentieth data release (DR20) from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey, the third data release of its fifth generation (SDSS-V). SDSS-V is a panoptic spectroscopy survey that is mappi...

On July 25, an initial onsite inspection by the NASA Madrid Deep Space Communications Complex (MDSCC) emergency response team found wildfire damage primarily to pavement and surrounding vegetation, wi...

Chief US science adviser calls for a shakeup in funding while handing out grants to accelerate research with AI.

Michael Kratsios, President Trump’s science adviser, proposed overhauling how the government funds research. Democrats said Mr. Trump’s actions had weakened science.

DHS announced the publication of a final rule that officially eliminates the “duration of status” loophole that allowed foreign students, exchange visitors, and media representatives to remain in the ...

The new rule, which also restricts the international students’ ability to transfer schools or change majors without approval in their first year, will go into effect in mid-September.

The North American Nanohertz Observatory for Gravitational Waves (NANOGrav) achieves sub-microsecond timing precision for several millisecond pulsars in its pulsar timing array (PTA) with the objectiv...

Proposed federal rules would rely on political appointees to decide how a lot of U.S. science gets done. History shows the consequences of such actions.

The Office of Management and Budget has proposed to completely restructure federal funding for science as we know it. In this bite, we review the most relevant points in the proposal and describe how ...

We report the {\it Chandra} non-detection of PSR J0901$-$4046, a $P=75.89 $ seconds long-period radio transient (LPT). For a distance of 467 pc, the upper limit on X-ray luminosity is $L_X \leq$ few $...

We report updated nHz gravitational wave (GW) significance, characterization, and interpretations using the customized chromatic-noise models (CNMs) developed in Larsen, Baier et al. (2026). for the N...

The president’s budget requests for NASA and the NSF were released last week. We summarizes the major cuts and their impacts while providing resources to help fight back against this attack on science...

Artemis, AI, Astronomy, and our place in it. The author asks why do astrophysics at all. To produce results faster, or to turn graduate students into inefficient stand-ins for software? Or because astronomy is one of the most human things we do. It gives us wonder, yes, but also responsibility: to remember the histories of colonialism and militarization tied to our instruments, to use new tools without surrendering judgment, and to insist that people remain the point of the enterprise. The universe is not only something to be computed. It is something to be encountered, interpreted, and loved.

The Artemis II mission crew contains four people -- including one woman and one Black man, both of whom will be the first on a lunar mission. But NASA hasn't been talking about these milestones much.

Set to lift off this week, the NASA flight will take astronauts around the Moon for the first time in more than 50 years.
