The Hubble Space Telescope was originally expected to last about 15 years in orbit, before its optical surfaces became too ...

NASA's Hubble Space Telescope explores the evolution of spiral galaxy UGC 10043 through images taken 23 years apart, in 2000 ...

Sometimes, Hubble or other telescopes will capture two or more galaxies that are in the process of merging — called interacting galaxies. These huge collisions can warp one or both of the galaxies, ...

In October 1923, Edwin Hubble utilized the 100-inch Hooker telescope to photograph the Andromeda Nebula, identifying a variable star within it. Hubble applied the known period-luminosity relationship ...

NASA's Hubble Space Telescope has captured yet another beautiful sight. While observing a series of interacting galaxies known as Galaxy AM 1045-325, Hubble spotted what looked like a celestial ...

Feb. 2 (UPI) --NASA released new images from the Hubble Space Telescope on Friday with rare images of two galaxies merging. The telescope showed a blue compact galaxy called ESO185-IG013, which ...

NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope is “seeing double.” Peering back 10 billion years into the universe’s past, Hubble astronomers found a pair of quasars that are so close to each other they look like a ...

The NSF NOIRLab-operated Gemini North telescope captured stunning imagery of galaxies UGC 12914 and UGC 12915, aka 'Taffy ...
