It turns out our Milky Way galaxy is truly warped, at least around the far edges.
An Australian telescope used to broadcast live vision of man's first steps on the moon in 1969 finds hundreds of new galaxies hidden behind the Milky Way by using an innovative receiver that measures radio waves.
A musician combines the logarithmic maps of the universe from Princeton and images from NASA to create an image showing the observable universe in one disc.
Astronomers find a few stars swirling around the centre of the Milky Way that were formed not long after the universe began.
Buried deep in the Antarctic ice, an observatory has spotted ghostly, nearly massless particles coming from inside the galaxy and points beyond the Milky Way.
A ring-like filament of stars wrapping around the Milky Way may actually belong to the galaxy itself, rippling above and below the relatively flat galactic plane. If so, that would expand the size of the known galaxy by 50% and raise intriguing questions about what caused the waves of stars.
