New photos from Hubble show what scientists call "spokes" across Saturn's rings. First seen by NASA's Voyager in the 1980s, these spokes appear seasonally and scientists still can't fully explain them.
The exploration of dreams, thoughts, and possibilities are hallmark traits of conceptual self-portrait photographer Fares Micue. The mesmeric and otherworldly concepts presented in each of her shots not only captivate the eyes but stir a kind of whimsical intrigue into the story behind the images.
Scientists say that their attempts to find exoplanets that could host life -- basically, another Earth -- could be obscured by what they refer to as planetary "photobombers," which could dramatically alter results.
The Giant Magellan Telescope, the most powerful telescope ever engineered, has secured a new $205M funding infusion that will be used to accelerate its construction. When finished, it will be four times more powerful than the James Webb Space Telescope.
Unistellar, the company behind a series of consumer-focused telescope cameras, has updated its Nocturne iPhone app to allow it to identify constellations, galaxies, nebulae, and planets.
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 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.
The James Webb Space Telescope has reached another major milestone in its mirror alignment process as the team has successfully worked through the second and third phases of the process and completed Segment Alignment.
The James Webb Space Telescope is currently in the midst of the months-long mirror calibration process before it starts to capture in-focus images, but NASA has released the first photo it took that verifies it is in great working condition.
The camera system on the James Webb Space Telescope is fully online and operational, and NASA has begun the process of aligning the mirrors so that it can begin to capture its first photos.
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.
Microsoft has announced a set of new partnerships and capabilities for Azure Space, including the ability for satellites to "see" through clouds along with enhanced image fidelity.
