MACS0647-JD, discovered in 2012, with z=10.7, does not appear on this list because it has not been confirmed with a spectroscopic redshift. [121] UDFy-38135539, discovered in 2009, with z=8.6, does not appear on this list because its claimed redshift is disputed. [122] Follow-up observations have failed to replicate the cited redshift measurement.
The following is a list of particularly notable actual or hypothetical stars that have their own articles in Wikipedia, but are not included in the lists above. BPM 37093 — a diamond star Cygnus X-1 — X-ray source
The most powerful telescope to be launched into space has made history by detecting a record number of new stars in a distant galaxy. NASA's James Webb Space Telescope, history's largest and most ...

This list contain only confirmed planets. Many candidate planets were decected via astrometry, including Gliese 65 Ab (which would be the nearest planet detected by this method, if confirmed), 9,698 candidates shown in a paper [ 1 ] as well as many more detected via Hipparcos-Gaia astrometry in another studies.
A separate team of astronomers, also using LOFAR, announced last fall the detection of Porphyrion, a gargantuan pair of jets spanning a whopping 23 million light-years — that’s 115 times more ...

Historically, astronomical observatories consisted generally in a building or group of buildings where observations of astronomical objects such as sunspots, planets, asteroids, comets, stars, nebulae, and galaxies in the visible wavelengths of the electromagnetic spectrum were conducted. At first, for millennia, astronomical observations have ...
