Hubble’s Detailed Andromeda Galaxy Mosaic Sheds Light on Its Past and Evolution
NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope has produced a massive photomosaic of the Andromeda galaxy, revealing more than 200 million stars. The study offers fresh insights into Andromeda’s evolutionary history, which includes mergers with smaller galaxies. This breakthrough provides a clearer picture of the galaxy's structure and the processes that shaped...

Webb Telescope Tracks Formation and Expansion of Carbon-Rich Dust Shells in Star System
As per the latest report by NASA, the system consists of two stars in an elongated orbit. When these stars come closest, their stellar winds collide, compressing material and forming carbon-rich dust. As reported in an official press release by NASA, Emma Lieb, a doctoral student at the University of Denver and the study's lead author, noted that t...

NASA’s Hubble Observes Rare Blue Lurker Star with Unusual Evolution in M67 Cluster
NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope has identified a rare stellar phenomenon called the “blue lurker” in the M67 star cluster. Located 2,800 light-years away, this star is part of a triple-star system and has an unusual evolutionary history. The blue lurker’s accelerated spin, taking just four days, contrasts with the typical rotation of Sun-like...

NASA's Hubble and Chandra Telescopes Spot Strange Tilted Black Hole
NASA’s Hubble and Chandra telescopes have uncovered a bizarre sideways black hole in the galaxy NGC 5084, located 80 million light-years away. The black hole’s unexpected tilt suggests it may have been influenced by a violent galactic collision. A new image processing technique, SAUNAS, revealed X-ray plumes in the galaxy, hinting at a cosmic e...

NASA Finds Black Hole Rotating at Unexpected Angle in NGC 5084 Galaxy
NASA researchers have uncovered a black hole in the NGC 5084 galaxy that rotates at an unexpected angle, revealed through re-analysed Chandra X-ray data. The black hole is surrounded by unusual X-shaped plasma plumes, indicating disruptions in the galaxy's past. A tipped dusty disk further supports this, confirming the black hole's unique sideways ...

Hubble Captures NGC 5643’s Spiral Arms, Star Formation, and Hidden Black Hole
The NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope has captured detailed images of the spiral galaxy NGC 5643, located 40 million light-years away. This grand design galaxy features striking spiral arms outlined by young blue stars and dust clouds, with star-forming regions visible as pinkish hues. Ultraviolet and X-ray studies have revealed an active galactic nu...

Hubble Telescope Documents 10 Years of Dramatic Changes on Outer Planets
NASA’s Hubble Telescope has tracked atmospheric and seasonal changes on Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune over ten years. Key findings include shifts in Jupiter’s Great Red Spot, Saturn’s seasonal phenomena, Uranus’ polar brightness, and Neptune’s storm activity. These insights, part of NASA’s Outer Planet Atmospheres Legacy (OPAL) p...

Hubble Captures Closest View of Quasar 3C 273, Revealing Mysterious Structures
The Hubble Space Telescope has provided an unprecedented view of quasar 3C 273, one of the brightest objects in the universe, unveiling mysterious features near its core. These include an L-shaped structure and blobs, likely smaller galaxies feeding the quasar’s black hole. The discovery also highlights a massive jet spanning 300,000 light-years ...

Hubble Offers Closest Look at Quasar 3C 273, Reveal Hidden Structures
NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope has captured unprecedented views of quasar 3C 273, located 2.5 billion light-years away. Using the STIS coronagraph, researchers uncovered unusual structures around the black hole, including an extragalactic jet and a mysterious L-shaped filament. The findings hint at galaxy interactions fuelling the quasar’s activ...

Jupiter’s Earth-Sized Storms Might Be Caused by Magnetic Tornadoes, Study Claims
Magnetic tornadoes twisting down from Jupiter's ionosphere create massive, Earth-sized anticyclonic storms in the planet's atmosphere. These dark ovals, detectable only in ultraviolet light, form dense hazes of aerosols stirred by swirling magnetic vortices. This phenomenon, visible at Jupiter's poles, was unveiled through data from the Hubble Spac...

Hubble Space Telescope Captures Rare Edge-On View of a Spiral Galaxy Located Millions of Light-Years Away
NASA and ESA’s Hubble Space Telescope captured an edge-on view of spiral galaxy UGC 10043, located around 150 million light-years away. Displaying its prominent dust lanes and unique bulge, this galaxy image highlights regions of active star formation. Captured in 2000 and 2023, the composite image uses various light wavelengths to detail the str...

Hubble Telescope Reveals Milky Way Blowing Gas off LMC Galaxy in Close Encounter
NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope has captured an extraordinary phenomenon as the Milky Way galaxy exerts ram pressure on the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC), stripping away most of its gas halo. The interaction, which occurs as LMC passes near the Milky Way, has led to the loss of significant mass from the dwarf galaxy. Despite this, LMC retains enough...
