NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope found a galaxy with a ‘LOPSIDED’ appearance because it’s being stretched and twisted by a neighboring star system The Hubble Space Telescope found galaxy NGC 2276 is being twisted by a neighboring galaxy Because of gravity, NGC 2300 is impacting NGC 22275 and causing it to ‘strangely lopsided appearance,’ pulling its outer edges … Read more
To mark the 31st anniversary of the Hubble Space Telescope astronauts pointed it in the direction of a giant star that is ‘on the edge of destruction’. The giant star, named AG Carinae, featured in this latest image is waging a tug-of-war between gravity and radiation to avoid self-destruction. It is surrounded by an expanding … Read more
NASA unveils enhanced version of Hubble’s Veil Nebula image that shows delicate threads and gas filaments of the giant dead star 2,100 light-years from Earth Hubble first took a snapshot of the exploded stars’ gaseous remains in 2015 that is called the Veil Nebula New imaging techniques offer details of delicate threads and gas filaments that … Read more

A small gas exoplanet may have lost its atmosphere billions of years ago, but then gained a second one through volcanic activity, according to astronomers. The planet, GJ 1132 b, is thought to have begun as a gaseous world, similar to Jupiter or Saturn but smaller than Neptune, with a thick hydrogen blanket of atmosphere. … Read more

NASA’s Hubble spacecraft discovers evidence of a WEATHER system on nearby ‘Hot Jupiter’ exoplanet – despite blistering surface temperatures of 2,192°F Researchers examined images of WASP-31b taken by the Hubble telescope WASP-31b is an extremely hot ‘puffy planet’ 1,305 light years away from Earth It is tidally locked, with one side facing the star and the … Read more
NASA’s Hubble telescope spots the ‘Greater Pumpkin’ galaxies 120 MILLION light-years from Earth, complete with glowing eyes and a carved crooked smile NASA’s Hubble telescope captured a spooky scene 120 million light-years away Deemed the ‘Greater Pumpkin’, the image is of two galaxies colliding The aging red stars are creating an orange hue that resembles … Read more
NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope has captured the explosive final moments of a star as it goes supernova in a galaxy 70 million light years from the Earth. Astronomers from Johns Hopkins University used images from the space telescope to track the fading light of the supernova to the spiral galaxy NGC 2525. The supernova, formally … Read more
NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope captures a stunning image of powerful blast wave from a dying star 2,400 light-years from Earth NASA shared the image of the supernova blast wave remnant taken by Hubble What is seen in the image is the very outer edge of a giant supernova blast wave It happened some 20,000 years … Read more
