Medicine & TechnologyEarly observations with this Webb Telescope will exhibit its capability of distinguishing the stars' individual light in the local universe making the most of the powerful capabilities of such a device.
The Hubble, NASA’s telescope in space, has released images of the galaxy giving birth to new stars. One could liken it to a bouquet of beautiful flowers.
NASA's Hubble Space Telescope has caught a delightful picture of starbursts in Virgo. It has spotted a numerous number of observations till now, out of which this one is very different.
When it comes to high-speed collisions, nobody here on Earth has anything on black holes. Astronomers have witnessed a new first: two high-speed knots of matter colliding in a sort of rear-end impact. They saw this after creating a time-lapse video of a super-speed jet of plasma as it shot out of a supermassive black hole. The knots of matter were inside the black hole until it blasted them out-and into each other.
Astronomers using the Hubble Space Telescope have found surprising new clues about a large, fast aging star that has never been seen before in the Milky Way galaxy. In fact, the star is so different that astronomers have nicknamed it "Nasty 1," a play on its catalog name of NaSt1. This strange star may represent a brief transitory stage in the evolution of extremely massive stars.
The Hubble Space Telescope took its first image-a blurry, black and white one-on May 20, 1990, 25 years ago. Since that time it has provided us with many iconic images which have come to form our collective mind's eye view of the cosmos.
