The mighty James Webb and Hubble space telescopes united to reveal stars being born inside the Small Magellanic Cloud, which ...

The James Webb Space Telescope captured imagery of dynamic star-forming region NCG 346 within the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC ...

Researchers have imaged the Small Magellanic Cloud in three times more detail than ever before. The new view shows the tiny galaxy is quickly losing hydrogen — and with it, its ability to form ...

A joint study using NASA’s NuSTAR and NICER telescopes has shed new light on RX J0032.9-7348, an X-ray pulsar in the Small Magellanic Cloud first identified 30 years ago. The pulsar exhibited a ...

The First Detection of a Protostellar CO Outflow in the Small Magellanic Cloud with ALMA. The Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2022; 936 (1): L6 DOI: 10.3847/2041-8213/ac81c1 ...

The Small Magellanic Cloud, which is a tiny fraction of the size and mass of the Milky Way, is one of our nearest galactic neighbours and visible to the naked eye in the southern sky.

A stellar nursery in the Small Magellanic Cloud is being fed fuel for star birth by a spiral of gas and stars flowing to it, according to observations from the Hubble Space Telescope and the Very ...

"Very dynamic" is a nice way of saying "violent." The new photo shows off the Small Magellanic Cloud's scars from close brushes with larger galaxies in the past, according to McClure Griffiths.

The Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) is the second-largest galaxy from our point of view, measuring an area 78 times as large as the Full Moon. The SMC contains no less than two dozen NGC objects ...

This image is just a small part of the SMC. “The Small Magellanic Cloud contains hundreds of millions of stars, but this image focuses on just a small fraction of them,” Hubble scientists write.

The Small Magellanic Cloud isn’t much to look at with the naked eye, even for visitors to the International Space Station. Former astronaut John Grunsfeld told reporters Tuesday about a ...
