Hubble’s high-resolution imagery allowed researchers to hone in on more of the Bullseye galaxy’s rings — and helped confirm ...
LEDA 1313424, aptly nicknamed the Bullseye, is two and a half times the size of our Milky Way and has nine rings — six more than any other known galaxy. High-resolution imagery from NASA’s Hubble ...
Compared to their more isolated counterparts, the galaxies in galaxy clusters are often distorted by the gravitational pull ...
In a study published today by The Astrophysical Journal Letters, a research team led by Yale University’s Imad Pasha ...
NASA has captured six stunning and rare images of galaxies, showcasing their unique shapes and formations. Among them are ...
NASA aims to launch the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope in 2027, which is essentially the Hubble telescope with a wider angle camera. The Roman telescope will be able to do in one exposure what ...
Around 2015, astronomers took on the painstaking task of stitching together Hubble Space Telescope images of this galaxy, but that effort had focused on the galaxy's northern half. Still, however, the ...
Hubble's sharp imaging capabilities can resolve more than 200 million stars in the Andromeda galaxy, detecting only stars brighter than our Sun. They look like grains of sand across the beach. But ...
High-resolution imagery from NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope confirmed eight rings, and data from the W. M. Keck Observatory in Hawaii confirmed a ninth. Hubble and Keck also confirmed which ...
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 ...
