Hubble glimpses globular cluster NGC 6544
The teeming stars of the globular cluster NGC 6544 glisten in this image from the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope. This cluster of tightly bound stars lies more than 8,000 light-years away from Earth and is, like all globular clusters, a densely popu.....»»
Hubble finds bizarre explosion in unexpected place
A very rare, strange burst of extraordinarily bright light in the universe just got even stranger—thanks to the eagle-eye of the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope. The phenomenon, called a Luminous Fast Blue Optical Transient (LFBOT), flashed onto th.....»»
Hubble captures starry Cetus constellation galaxy
New and old stars alike twinkle in the dusty spiral arms of NGC 1087. Located 80 million light-years away in the constellation Cetus, NGC 1087 is a barred spiral galaxy. It has a diameter of 87,000 light-years and a very small nucleus, or center......»»
Hubble captures intermediate spiral galaxy NGC 6951
Bright blue spiral arms twist around the bright-white center of this starry galaxy. This new NASA Hubble Space Telescope image features NGC 6951, an intermediate spiral galaxy 78 million light-years away in the Cepheus constellation......»»
Hubble records rare radio galaxy NGC 612
A striking orange and blue streak fills this new image from NASA's Hubble Space Telescope. Hubble's visible and infrared capabilities captured this edge-on view of lenticular galaxy NGC 612. Lenticular galaxies have a central bulge and disk much like.....»»
Study investigates the population of young low-mass stars in Trumpler 14
Using the Very Large Telescope (VLT), European astronomers have performed spectroscopic observations of an open cluster known as Trumpler 14. Results of the observational campaign, published September 25 on the pre-print server arXiv, shed more light.....»»

Hubble investigates the gorgeous remnants of a supernova
Scientists are using data from Hubble data of the famous Cygnus Loop supernova remnant to study how these remnants change over time......»»
Saturday Citations: Volcano vs. asteroid; NASA"s supernova time lapse; immortal chemicals
This week, we're highlighting a study involving toxic chemical contaminants, and just for fun, a second study involving other toxic chemical contaminants. But NASA made a cool time-lapse video using the good old Hubble space telescope, and a group of.....»»
Living on the edge: Supernova bubble expands in new Hubble time-lapse movie
Though a doomed star exploded some 20,000 years ago, its tattered remnants continue racing into space at breakneck speeds—and NASA's Hubble Space Telescope has caught the action......»»
Hubble peers at peculiar Arp 107 pair
This image taken using the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope's Advanced Camera for Surveys (ACS) shows Arp 107, a celestial object that includes a pair of galaxies in the midst of a collision. The larger object (left) is an extremely energetic type of.....»»
Discovery of histidine methylation as a new post-translational modification of histone proteins
In eukaryotes, genomic DNA, which is a very long double helix containing all the genetic information, wraps around a globular protein called a histone and folds it many times before being contained within the nucleus......»»
New Type I supernova discovered with JWST
Using the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), an international team of astronomers has observed the galaxy cluster PLCK G165.7+67.0. The observational campaign resulted in the detection of a new Type I supernova. The finding is reported in a paper pub.....»»
Turkish astronomers investigate open cluster NGC 2509
Using data from ESA's Gaia satellite, astronomers from the Istanbul University have inspected a Galactic open cluster known as NGC 2509. Results of the study, published September 10 on the pre-print server arXiv, deliver important insights into the s.....»»
Kubernetes vulnerability allows RCE on Windows endpoints (CVE-2023-3676)
Three high-severity Kubernetes vulnerabilities (CVE-2023-3676, CVE-2023-3893, CVE-2023-3955) could allow attackers to execute code remotely and gain control over all Windows nodes in the Kubernetes cluster. About the vulnerabilities CVE-2023-3676, di.....»»
Titanic galaxy cluster collision in the early universe challenges standard cosmology
A collision of two massive clusters of galaxies when the universe was half its current age should not have happened according to the standard theory of cosmology, says a new study by an international group of astronomers, including a physicist at the.....»»
Two large cold fronts detected in the galaxy cluster Abell 3558
Astronomers from the University of Alabama in Huntsville have investigated the galaxy cluster Abell 3558 using ESA's XMM-Newton spacecraft. In their results, they detected two large-scale sloshing cold fronts in the outskirts of this cluster. The fin.....»»
Team of astronomers investigate a galaxy group in the early universe
Using the Hubble Space Telescope, an international team of astronomers led by researchers at the Cosmic Dawn Center in Copenhagen, have investigated a galaxy seen almost 11 billion years back in time. Contrary to typical observations, the galaxy was.....»»
See the sparkling Terzan 12 globular cluster in new Hubble image
A new image from the Hubble Space Telescope shows a stunning field of thousands of stars, part of a globular star cluster called Terzan 12......»»
