A team of scientists has combined high-resolution images from the ALMA telescopes with a new scheme for undoing the distorting effects of a powerful gravitational lens.

After a construction phase of more than two years, the ASTRON building was officially opened on Monday, March 16 by State Secretary Sander Dekker.

Last week the SKA Board of Directors unanimously agreed to move the world’s largest radio telescope forward to its final pre-construction phase.

An international team of astronomers used the giant radio telescope LOFAR to create the sharpest astronomical image ever taken at very long radio wavelengths.

Scientists measured the space-time warp in the gravity of a binary star and determined the mass of a neutron star — just before it disappeared.

Prof. Dr. Tom Oosterloo has been awarded a prestigious TOP grant from NWO, the Netherlands Organisation for Scientific Research.

An international team of astronomers has for the first time discovered the largest carbon atoms outside our Milky Way with the LOFAR radio telescope.

The whirlpool galaxy Messier 51 (M51) is seen from a distance of approximately 30 million light years.

In late June 2013, an exceptional binary containing a rapidly spinning neutron star underwent a dramatic change in behaviour never before observed.

Brief pulse detected by Arecibo telescope appears to come from far beyond our galaxy

New research has solved a long-standing mystery surrounding the evolution of galaxies, which deepens our understanding of the future of the Milky Way.
