Hubble Space Telescope

This image taken by the Hubble Space Telescope shows Aram-Mador 2105-332, a unique galaxy system in the Microscope Group. It is known for its emission line galaxies, which indicate vigorous star formation. It appears in Hubble's picture of the week, and that the names were given to galaxies using astronomical coordinates. Credit: ESA/Hubble & NASA, J. Dalcanton, Acknowledgment: L. Shatz

Parade of Galaxies: The stunning star show from Hubble

Two of these galaxies close to each other are a rare type of emission line galaxies, because they are undergoing a massive process of new star birth. The others are at different distances but line up nicely in this Hubble shot
A multi-color view of MACS0416, a galaxy cluster about 4.3 billion light-years from Earth. The image was created by combining infrared observations from NASA's James Webb Space Telescope with visible light data from NASA's Hubble Space Telescope. The resulting prismatic panorama of the blues and reds gives clues to the distances of the galaxies. Credit: NASA, ESA, CSA, STScI, Jose M. Diego (IFCA), Jordan CJ D'Silva (UWA), Anton M.

The Webb and Hubble space telescopes join forces in detecting interstellar dust - "We got more than we expected"

  • One response
A combination of photographs taken by the two large space telescopes in partially overlapping wavebands made it possible to identify new details about the role of interstellar dust in connections between neighboring galaxies
Among other things, ARP-MADORE2115-273 was photographed, a rare observation of an interaction between a pair of galaxies and ARP-MADORE0002-503 - a large spiral galaxy with unusually extended spiral arms.

The computer of the space telescope 'Hubble' is still disabled - NASA is trying new strategies to solve the problem

NASA is taking additional steps to investigate the malfunction that happened to the computer of the Hubble space telescope that began on June 13 and caused the suspension of scientific observations. At the same time as the investigation, NASA is looking at indirect ways to activate the backup hardware integrated in the satellite. The telescope itself and the rest of the scientific instruments were not damaged, and they were moved to a safe state
The Hubble Space Telescope was deployed on April 25, 1990 from the high-redundancy space shuttle Discovery. Hubble's location outside the distortions of the atmosphere gives it an unfettered view of stars, planets, and galaxies out to a distance of more than 13.4 billion light-years.

NASA is working to solve a problem with the Hubble Space Telescope's computer. The computer stopped working on Sunday, June 13, shortly after 16:00 p.m. (23:00 p.m. Israel time). This is already the second malfunction of the aging telescope this year

Look around - tidal forces have solved the mystery of dark matter in a distant galaxy

  • 15 תגובות
In 2018, a galaxy with a low amount of dark matter was observed. The galaxy defied all existing models but it turns out that the celebration came earlier than expected and two years later it was announced that tidal forces shed the dark matter. Astronomers are breathing a sigh of relief but the scientific community is still confused, what is dark matter?

This image, taken by Hubble's Advanced Camera for Surveys, shows part of the globular cluster NGC 6752. Behind the bright stars of the cluster, there is a dense collection of faint-looking stars. They belong to a hitherto unknown spheroidal dwarf galaxy. This galaxy, known as Bedin 1, is about 30 million light-years from Earth. Photo: ESA/Hubble, NASA, Bedin et al.

NGC 5256 - a pair of galaxies in the final stages of merging. This object was previously imaged by the Hubble Space Telescope and released as part of a collection of 59 colliding galaxies on the Hubble Space Telescope's 18th birthday, April 24, 2008. The new data clearly show the gas and dust swirling around the galaxy and especially its double center more sharply. This image is a composite of data collected by the Advanced Camera for Surveys and the Wide Angle Camera #3. Photo: NASA/Hubble Space Telescope

Astronomers using the Hubble Space Telescope and a trick of nature have confirmed the existence of a planet orbiting two stars in the OGLE-2007-BLG-349 system, located 8,000 light-years away toward the center of our galaxy. The observations are the first in which a three-body system has been discovered using the micro-cleaning technique
