Beyond our solar system, countless alien worlds of lava, ice, water and noxious gas swirl through the cosmos. Here are some of the strangest exoplanets that scientists have discovered so far.

Using the James Webb Space Telescope astronomers have found that a strange inflated exoplanet is even weirder than they realized finding a strange asymmetry in its atmosphere.

The Hubble tension, a longstanding problem in cosmology, could potentially be relieved if early dark energy is taken into account.

The James Webb Space Telescope has imaged a collision between two galaxies that appears to have created a beaming smile in space.

For the past few years, a series of controversies have rocked the well-established field of cosmology. In a nutshell, the predictions of the standard model of the universe appear to be at odds with some recent observations.
