Heroes of Space: Edwin Hubble

How one of the world’s greatest astronomers shaped our understanding of the universe

Deep Space

What would Hubble see from a distant galaxy?

We find out what the space telescope can see from a far away galaxy

Solar System

Astronomers spot an asteroid in the process of switching colours

The asteroid is likely shedding reddish dust, revealing a fresh, blue surface beneath

Solar System

A telescope orbiting the Moon could spy one interstellar visitor per year

Such a mission would shed considerable light on our solar system’s population of interstellar objects

Solar System

ALMA spies on the tempestuous storms of Jupiter

Looking at Jupiter in the radio wavelength can reveal details about the ammonia stirring below the clouds

Deep Space

New image release: Hubble’s weird perspective of a spiral galaxy

Believe it or not, this long, luminous streak, speckled with bright blisters and pockets of material, is a structure like our Milky Way

Solar System

New image release: Hubble showcases new portrait of Jupiter

The NASA/ESA space telescope reveals the intricate, detailed beauty of the gas giant’s clouds in this new image taken on 27 June 2019

Deep Space

Astronomers spot a ‘football-shaped’ exoplanet kicking out heavy metals

The hot-Jupiter WASP-121b has metals such as iron and magnesium flee the host planet due to its weak gravity

Deep Space

The Hubble constant has changed, once again

This new measurement is based upon measuring the distance to red giant stars in different galaxies

Deep Space

Hubble spots a strange thin disc at the core of a nearby galaxy

The disc orbits a black hole 250 times the mass of our Sun and it speeds material up to unimaginable speeds

Deep Space

Astronomers watch on as two black hole behemoths get ready for a collision

The titanic duo can help astronomers predict when the historic first detection of the background ‘hum’ of gravitational waves from supermassive black holes will be made

Deep Space

Hubble and Spitzer team up to reveal the exoplanet’s atmosphere 97 light years away

Atmospheric analysis of Gilese 3470 b shows it be unlike any planet seen in our Solar System

Deep Space

A dwarf galaxy 3,000 light years away is forming stars at an unusually incredible rate

More unusually for its size, ESO 495-21 could have a supermassive black hole hiding at its core

Deep Space

Astronomers detail the deformation of galaxies as they collide

The collision course between NGC 4485 and NGC 4490 produces a bright and creative form of irregularity

Deep Space

Are planetary nebulae made by supernovae?

We find out if these beautiful structures are made by the titanic explosion of massive stars

Solar System

Hubble has been watching Neptune’s enormous storm come back into the fold

Comparing the storms on the gas giants Jupiter and Neptune act can tell us interesting details about their formation and evolution

Deep Space

The brightest quasar in the early universe has been discovered

This extremely powerful and young galaxy was magnified, like a lens, by a foreground galaxy

Space Exploration

The ‘camera that saved Hubble’ turns 25

25 years ago, a group of NASA astronauts altered the Hubble Space Telescope in a way that would change our understanding of the universe

Deep Space

Supermassive black holes caught in the act of merging

The act of galaxies merging are extreme events and result in anarchy that is superb to observe

Astronomy

Hubble is slowly returning to action

Additional tests are needed before Hubble can resume normal science operations
