An Enormous Gravity ‘Hum’ Moves Through the Universe

The discovery, recently announced by the team known as the North American Nanohertz Observatory for Gravitational Waves, or NANOGrav, shows that extra-large ripples in space-time are constantly squashing and changing the shape of space.

Jesús Huertas has been awarded in the IV Outreach Contest 'Yo Investigo'. Yo soy CSIC' for PhD candidates

For his originality and clear exposition.

The Fermi Gamma-Ray Space Telescope celebrates its 15th anniversary

• Fermi LAT has revolutionized the field of high-energy astrophysics and has provided us with a new window of exploration into the most violent universe, allowing us to better understand the physical processes and extreme conditions that exist in the cosmos.
