The dark nebula is part of the Circinus West molecular cloud, which stretches for 180 light-years, containing a mass 250,000 ...

The National Science Foundation's Dark Energy Camera reveals a stunning glimpse into the 'dark nebula' known as the Circinus ...

If dark energy is weakening, as suggested by recent results, then the cosmos is far stranger than most physicists had ...

It's named Eos, after the Greek goddess of the dawn, and contains approximately 3,400 solar masses worth of gas.

An international team of scientists led by a Rutgers University–New Brunswick astrophysicist has discovered a potentially ...

The cloud, named Eos, is chock-full of molecular hydrogen and possibly rife with star-forming potential in the future.

Astronomers have detected a promising sign of a ninth planet lurking at the the farthest reaches of the Solar System.

Despite being 3,400 times the mass of the sun and just 300 light-years away, the hydrogen cloud had gone unnoticed until now.

Hello, Eos! Recently discovered molecular cloud is believed to be one of the largest structures in the sky and among the closest to Earth and the sun.

around 60 times the size of our solar system. Nebulas like this are so dense that light cannot pass through them, resulting in their dark, ink-like appearance and the fitting nickname "dark nebulas." ...

The dark cloud shown here stretches an estimated 180 light-years across, or more than 60 times wider than our solar system, and contains the equivalent mass of 250,000 suns.
