Quasars are luminous beacons powered by black holes consuming material at the centers of galaxies. In a recent study, Hubble provided an up-close look at the environment around 3C 273, revealing ...

This NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope image features the spiral galaxy NGC 2566, which sits 76 million light-years away in the constellation Puppis. A prominent bar of stars stretches across the ...

Astronomers have used STIS to unveil dusty disks around stars to understand the formation of planetary systems, and now they can use STIS to better understand quasars' host galaxies. The Hubble ...

26, 2024 — In a surprise finding, astronomers using NASA's Hubble Space Telescope have discovered that the blowtorch-like jet from a supermassive black hole at the core of a huge galaxy seems to ...

New imagery has been released from NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope, which captured a photo of a spiral galaxy more than 76 million light-years away from Earth. The galaxy known to observers as NGC ...

Credit: ESA/Hubble & NASA, R. Windhorst, W. Keel It's the year 2000. We're floating in space, and we come across the side view of a spectacular spiral galaxy. It's called UGC 10043 and is located ...

Hubble’s Law — also known as the Hubble Constant — says that galaxies are moving away from us at a rate of 67-68 kilometers per second per megaparsec (a megaparsec is 3.26 million light-years).
