Stars appear as tiny twinkling dots in our night sky, but their sizes vary. Take a look at some of the biggest stars we have observed. Black Holes are some of the biggest single-body objects. Take a look at the sizes of the ones we have detected.

From the journey of protons racing through the world’s largest particle collider in Europe to up-close views of the Big Bang and emergent cosmos, Phantom of the Universe is a planetarium show designed to immerse audiences in the search for dark matter.

Impacts from large asteroids are immensely rare, but small- and medium-sized rocks are far more common in the Solar System and can still do serious damage. In order to become aware of the current and future position of near-Earth objects relative to our planet, we need eyes in the sky, scanning for potentially hazardous space rocks.

For thousands of years, humans observed the light coming from the night sky with their eyes. The invention of the telescope revolutionised our knowledge of the Universe. When it became possible to go above the Earth’s atmosphere, we were able to observe X-ray and gamma-ray radiation, which are the marks of the hot and violent Universe. But it is not only light that can give us information about the cosmos. Neutrinos, cosmic rays and gravitational waves also provide vital information.
