NGC 3603-A1 is a pair of giant stars locked in a rapid 3.8-day orbit. Their dynamic relationship provides clues to how massive stars evolve and form black holes. A team of astronomers combined archiva ...

The discovery could lead to the finding of more planets. Astrophysicists are marveling at the latest celestial discovery made near the Milky Way's supermassive black hole. Scientists have uncovered ...

Planets can orbit one star in a binary system (S-type orbit). Planets can orbit both stars in a binary system (P-type orbit). Planets might share an orbit with a smaller star in a binary system ...

Binary star systems make for unstable planets A system's galactic neighbors will throw orbits into chaos.

A binary code is the language of computers and digital systems. It uses a two-symbol system (0 and 1) to represent text, instruction, or other data. However, humans can’t understand binary code by ...

Those ones and zeros might not look like anything to you, but in binary code the numbers are actually saying “Hello!” Any code that uses just two symbols to represent information is considered binary ...

A pair of stars orbiting one another has been found near the supermassive black hole Sagittarius A* using the European ...

An international team of astronomers reports the discovery of a new pre-main-sequence eclipsing binary system. The newfound ...
