Astronomers report that intense radiation from a very active supermassive black hole can reduce recent star formation not only in its own galaxy but also in neighboring galaxies millions of light-years away.

Astronomers imaged the dusty aftermath of two collisions between large bodies around the nearby young star Fomalhaut, the first such images beyond the solar system. Teams will track the expanding dust with Hubble and the James Webb Space Telescope.
A University of Zurich team created new interior models for Uranus and Neptune. The work shows the planets could be rock-rich or water-rich, helps explain their odd magnetic fields, and says we need dedicated missions to learn more.
A University of Michigan-led study using Chandra X-ray data finds many dwarf galaxies do not show signs of central supermassive black holes. The result suggests the biggest black holes may have formed large early and could be tested by future missions.
