Hubble spots a massive star forming amid clouds of dust and gas
A stunning new image from the Hubble Space Telescope shows the birth of a new, massive star at around 30 times the mass of our sun......»»
Image: Hubble views a massive star forming
This image from the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope is teeming with color and activity. It features a relatively close star-forming region known as IRAS 16562-3959, which lies within the Milky Way about 5,900 light-years from Earth in the constellati.....»»
Hubble spots a galaxy shrouded by stars
This NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope image shows a densely packed field of stars laid upon a background of dust, gas, and light from more distant celestial objects. There are so many stars in this image's field of view that it may be a little tricky.....»»
Hubble spies baby stars being born amid chaos of interacting galaxies
Amid swirling gas and dust pulled by gravitational forces of interacting galaxies, there can be bursts of star formation, creating new generations of stars......»»
Hubble detects celestial "string of pearls" star clusters in galaxy collisions
When spectacular cosmic events such as galaxy collisions occur, it sets off a reaction to form new stars, and possibly new planets that otherwise would not have formed. The gravitational pull that forces the collisions between these galaxies creates.....»»
Hubble traces "string of pearls" star clusters in galaxy collisions
Contrary to what you might think, galaxy collisions do not destroy stars. In fact, the rough-and-tumble dynamics trigger new generations of stars and presumably accompanying planets......»»
Canada ice fishing season gets off to late start due to warm weather
On a frozen river in Canada, a cluster of brightly colored cabins stand out against the white snow as vehicles crawl to and fro......»»
Team discovers mechanism that protects tissue after faulty gene expression
A study at the University of Cologne's CECAD Cluster of Excellence in Aging Research has identified a protein complex that is activated by defects in the spliceosome, the molecular scissors that process genetic information. Future research could lead.....»»
Hubble captures a suspected galaxy encounter
UGC 3912 is classified as a spiral galaxy, but you wouldn't know it from this detailed NASA Hubble Space Telescope image. UGC 3912's distorted shape is typically indicative of a gravitational encounter with another galaxy. When galaxies interact—ei.....»»
Hubble observes galaxy NGC 5427
The galaxy NGC 5427 shines in this new NASA Hubble Space Telescope image. It's part of the galaxy pair Arp 271, and its companion NGC 5426 is located below this galaxy and outside of this image's frame. However, the effects of the pair's gravitationa.....»»
Research team demonstrates robust light propagation in open systems
Physicists from the University of Rostock, the Cluster of Excellence ct.qmat, the Julius-Maximilians University of Würzburg and the Indiana University Indianapolis (IUPUI) have shown for the first time that light can propagate without any loss in sy.....»»
ALMA observations: Researchers reveal dynamic view of massive protocluster evolution
A team of researchers has jointly launched the ALMA Survey of Star formation and Evolution of Massive Protoclusters with Blue-profiles (ASSEMBLE) project. They revealed the growth in mass and density of cluster members, along with increasing proximit.....»»
The 60 best space photos of all time from Nasa, Hubble, and more

Salsa"s last dance targets reentry over South Pacific
Launched in 2000, Cluster is a unique constellation of four identical spacecraft investigating the interaction between the sun and Earth's magnetosphere—our shield against the charged gas, energetic particles and magnetic field coming from our star.....»»
Hubble views NGC 3384, a galaxy settling into old age
NGC 3384, visible in this image, has many of the characteristic features of so-called elliptical galaxies. Such galaxies glow diffusely, are rounded in shape, display few visible features, and rarely show signs of recent star formation. Instead, they.....»»
Image: Hubble captures Arp 295
One of the galaxies from a galactic group known as Arp 295 is visible in this new NASA Hubble Space Telescope image, along with part of the faint 250,000-light-year-long bridge of stars and gas that stretches between two of the galaxies. The galaxies.....»»
