Millions of Galaxies Emerge in New Simulated Images From NASA's Roman

03.08.2023
Scientists have created a gargantuan synthetic survey that shows what we can expect from the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope’s future observations. Though it represents just a small chunk of the real future survey, this simulated version contains a staggering number of galaxies – 33 million, along with 200,000 foreground stars in our home galaxy.

Hubble Peers at a Galactic Seascape

03.03.2023
A “jellyfish galaxy” with trailing tentacles of stars hangs in inky blackness in this image from the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope.

How NASA’s Roman Space Telescope Will Rewind the Universe

03.01.2023
A new simulation shows how NASA’s Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope will turn back the cosmic clock, unveiling the evolving universe in ways that have never been possible before.

Hubble Captures Movie of DART Asteroid Impact Debris

03.01.2023
NASA's Hubble Space Telescope captured a series of photos of asteroid Dimorphos when it was deliberately hit by a 1,200-pound NASA spacecraft called DART on September 26, 2022.

Hubble Observes Cosmic Contortions

02.24.2023

Hubble Views a Merging Galactic Trio

02.17.2023
This Hubble Space Telescope image holds three galaxies set on a collision course. They will eventually merge into a single larger galaxy, distorting one another’s spiral structure through mutual gravitational interaction in the process.

NASA’s Webb Reveals Intricate Networks of Gas and Dust in Nearby Galaxies

02.16.2023
Researchers using NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope are getting their first look at star formation, gas, and dust in nearby galaxies with unprecedented resolution at infrared wavelengths.

NASA’s Webb Uncovers New Details in Pandora’s Cluster

02.15.2023
Astronomers have revealed the latest deep field image from NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope, featuring never-before-seen details in a region of space known as Pandora’s Cluster (Abell 2744).

Hubble Spots an Elusive Galaxy

02.10.2023
Right in the middle of this image taken with the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope lies the newly discovered dwarf galaxy known as Donatiello II.

Hubble Captures the Start of a New Spoke Season at Saturn

02.09.2023
New images of Saturn from NASA's Hubble Space Telescope herald the start of the planet's "spoke season" surrounding its equinox, when enigmatic features appear across its rings.

Webb Detects Extremely Small Main Belt Asteroid

02.06.2023
An asteroid roughly the size of Rome’s Colosseum — between 300 to 650 feet (100 to 200 meters) in length — has been detected by an international team of European astronomers using NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope.

High-Gain Antenna for NASA’s Roman Mission Clears Environmental Tests

02.06.2023
Engineers at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland, have finished testing the high-gain antenna for the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope. This antenna will provide the primary communication link between the Roman spacecraft and the ground.
