NASA's Hubble Space Telescope managed to capture an incredible image of a galaxy that looks an awful lot like a bullseye. "This was a serendipitous discovery," said Imad Pasha, the lead researcher ...

A little-known chapter of the Hubble Space Telescope’s history is a reminder of the risks of looking at the sun If you’ve ever done any public outreach work for astronomy—if you’ve given ...

The water ripples out from where the bird breaks the surface. The Hubble Space Telescope is helping scientists unravel the history of the two galaxies and the results of their cosmic meetup.

Now those hoops surround a "new" galaxy. Thanks to the Hubble Space Telescope, researchers at Yale University have discovered the freshly-named "bullseye galaxy," which features nine sparkling ...

It can be seen with the naked eye on a very clear autumn night as a faint cigar-shaped object roughly the apparent angular diameter of our Moon. A century ago, Edwin Hubble first established that ...

The mystery of the Hubble tension has deepened with the startling finding that the Coma Cluster of galaxies is 38 million light-years closer than it should be. In recent years, trouble has been ...

This is the story for a system that once contained three co-orbiting stars. Forensics with Hubble data show that the stars have had a tumultuous life. Two of the stars merged about 500 million ...

Jumping workouts could help astronauts prevent the type of cartilage damage they are likely to endure during lengthy missions to Mars and the Moon, a new study suggests. The researchers found that ...

Williams (University of Washington) The universe is an unfathomably big place, but even after decades of service, the Hubble Space Telescope can see a lot of it. It's also great for things that ...

Determining the expansion rate of the universe—known as the Hubble constant—has been a major scientific pursuit ever since 1929, when Edwin Hubble first discovered that the universe was expanding.

Video of the largest photomosaic ever assembled from Hubble Space Telescope observations ... as a faint cigar-shaped object roughly the apparent angular diameter of our Moon. When Grion Filho joined ...

This discrepancy between model and data became known as the Hubble tension. Now, results published in the Astrophysical Journal Letters provide even stronger support to the faster rate of expansion.
