The James Webb Space Telescope and the Hubble Space Telescope both managed to capture detailed images of the impact of the planetary defense Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART). It is the first time that Webb and Hubble have simultaneously observed the same celestial target.
The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) has captured a mid-infrared image of the spiral galaxy IC 5332, which shows an entirely different view compared to what Hubble is able to see of the same region.
Two spiral galaxies were photographed "colliding" into one another by the Hubble Space Telescope but the image is actually a celestial optical illusion.
A team of astronomers used three NASA space telescopes to create a composite image of the remains of a supernova that reveals details about the star's death.
The James Webb Space Telescope's (JWST) mid-infrared instrument (MIRI) has been used to capture a gorgeous and mesmerizing photo of the heart of galaxy M74, also known as the Phantom Galaxy.
Fans of astrophotography are currently feasting thanks to the James Webb Space Telescope, but Hubble isn't ready to be forgotten yet. Its latest capture is a gorgeous glittering star cluster in the constellation Sagittarius.
While the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) has dominated headlines, the Hubble Space Telescope shouldn't be forgotten. The legendary observatory recently captured this gorgeous photo that showcases the colors of the Orion Nebula.
While the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) is the focus of most space-related headlines lately, Hubble is still hard at work and recently captured this stunning star cluster photo.
NASA has announced that it has isolated the mass and location of what could be a “wandering” black hole using the Hubble Space Telescope. This is the first time in the space agency's history it has been able to achieve this, despite there being over 100 million black holes populating our galaxy.
NASA's Hubble Space Telescope has calibrated more than 40 "milepost markers" of space and time over the course of the last 30 years that scientists are using to measure the expansion of the universe.
Hubble recently celebrated 32 years of imaging the sky, which has resulted in over 1.4 million observations. Physicist Casey Handmer combined those observations into a single image to see how much of the sky Hubble had actually captured.
The universe is losing a galaxy. Recent images from the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope show two galaxies in the process of merging. Dubbed "Angel Wing" due to its symmetrical appearance, the collision forms part of the Leo constellation.
NASA is celebrating the Hubble Space Telescope's 32nd birthday through a remarkable photo that shows a collection of five closely-knit galaxies called The Hickson Compact Group 40.
The Hubble Space Telescope has been responsible for some of the most exciting astronomical finds in history and while research time with Hubble is highly sought after, anyone can check what the storied telescope is currently pointed at whenever they like.
NASA's Hubble Space Telescope has captured the largest icy comet ever observed by astronomers. With a diameter of about 80 miles across, it is 50 times bigger than most known comets and it is headed directly towards Earth.
In a new photo captured by Hubble, what appears to be a calm spiral galaxy belies the supermassive black hole at its nucleus.
The Hubble Space Telescope has set a new record: photographing a star that existed when the universe was just 7% of its current age. The star is the farthest away any has ever been photographed, and its light took 12.9 billion years to reach Hubble.
Hubble has photographed a massive spiral galaxy that lies about 60 million light-years from Earth. Despite its size, it's far from the largest celestial object known to astronomers.
The Hubble Space Telescope has captured an incredibly detailed photo of a spiral galaxy that is shaped like an eye. The photo was made thanks to two of Hubble's instruments: the Wide Field Camera 3 (WFC3) and the Advanced Camera for Surveys (ACS).
The Hubble Space Telescope recently celebrated its 20th year using the Advanced Camera for Surveys (ACS), which was installed on Hubble in March of 2002 and became its most used camera.
Hubble has captured a stunning photo of two interacting galaxies that likely passed through one another, which caused them to ignite in a "frenzy of starbirth."
A team of astrophysicists has created a simulated image that shows how the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope will operate compared to Hubble: it will be able to image an area 300x larger with the same sharp resolution.
The Hubble Space Telescope, while soon to be succeeded by the James Webb Space Telescope, continues to capture important images of the universe. In two recent images, perspective plays an important role in how these galaxies appear.
The Hubble Space Telescope has observed a black hole at the center of a dwarf galaxy that is not acting like the destructive monsters they are often portrayed as. Instead, this black hole is creating stars rather than absorbing them.
A new image taken by the Hubble Space Telescope showcases a spiral-shaped galaxy that lies around 150 million light-years away. But NASA says not to be fooled: its peaceful state belies a violent past.
NASA is set to launch the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), the successor to the legendary Hubble Space Telescope, on December 25, and what it will be first set to observe was determined from more than 1,000 proposals.
NASA has successfully fully restored Hubble to full operation, and all four of its active instruments are back online and collecting science observations.
NASA is making significant progress on reviving the Hubble Space Telescope, which has been in safe mode since early November after the synchronization of messages that control its instruments were becoming lost.
The Hubble Space Telescope's scientific operations have been suspended for the second time this year. It is currently in safe mode and NASA engineers are trying to figure out what went wrong.
In December of last year, Hubble captured a photo of a distant galaxy that, thanks to gravitational lensing, appeared almost as a perfect "Einstein Ring." A year later, astronomers revealed what they learned from examining the photo.
