Even after all these years, Hubble continues to uncover the mysteries of the universe. These are a few science achievements from Hubble’s latest year in orbit.For more information about the Hubble Space Telescope and its images, visit https://nasa.gov/hubble.Music Credits:“Twist of Fate” by Axel Tenner [GEMA], Michael Schluecker [GEMA], and Raphael Schalz [GEMA].

Pumpkin Stars
Oct. 8th, 2018
Read moreMeet the stars that spin so quickly they squash themselves into the shape of a pumpkin. Learn about the formation of Pumpkin Stars, from their rapid spin to their intense X-ray emissions. KSw 71 is the most extreme Pumpkin Star. It is larger, cooler and redder than our Sun, and rotates four times as fast. Eighteen Pumpkin Stars were found in Kepler’s field of view. Pumpkin stars form when two Sun-like stars merge. Newly formed Pumpkin stars have an excretion disk, which will dissipate over the next 100 million years.

Pumpkin Sun

Read moreOn October 8, 2014, active regions on the sun gave it the appearance of a jack-o'-lantern. This image is a blend of 171 and 193 angstrom light as captured by the Solar Dynamics Observatory.Credit: NASA/GSFC/SDO The sun as imaged by the Solar Dynamics Observatory on Oct. 8, 2014, in 335 angstrom extreme ultraviolet light.Credit: NASA/SDO The sun as imaged by the Solar Dynamics Observatory on Oct. 8, 2014, in 193 angstrom extreme ultraviolet light.Credit: NASA/SDO The sun as imaged by the Solar Dynamics Observatory on Oct. 8, 2014, in 171 angstrom extreme ultraviolet light.Credit: NASA/SDO The sun as imaged by the Solar Dynamics Observatory on Oct. 8, 2014, in 304 angstrom extreme ultraviolet light.Credit: NASA/SDO Active regions on the sun combined to look something like a jack-o-lantern’s face on Oct. 8, 2014. The active regions appear brighter because those are areas that emit more light and energy — markers of an intense and complex set of magnetic fields hovering in the sun’s atmosphere, the corona. This image blends together two sets of wavelengths at 171 and 193 angstroms, typically colorized in gold and yellow, to create a particularly Halloween-like appearance. Related pages
Stuck In Neverland
Aug. 29th, 2012
Read moreA moon of Saturn appears to be a planet that never grew up. Explore how Phoebe was born like a planet but ended up as a moon of Saturn. Cassini imaging reveals that Phoebe has a nearly spherical shape despite being heavily cratered. Each image represents a 90-degree turn. A model of Phoebe's shape made with Cassini data shows a 10-mile range between the lowest (blue) and highest (red) elevations. Phoebe resembles a sideways skull in the left image. On the right, bright rays from a crater suggest Phoebe has lighter material beneath. A close-up of Phoebe's south pole: Brighter areas are likely ice exposed by small craters; the largest craters are more than 2.5 miles deep. Related pages
A New Dawn
July 11th, 2012
Read moreThe Milky Way and Andromeda galaxies are destined to collide. See how it will all unfold. Watch this video to learn more about what will happen when the two galaxies collide. This computer simulation shows the Milky Way and Andromeda as their orbits evolve over the next 7 billion years. The following illustrations preview the merger as seen from Earth, beginning with a present day view of Andromeda and the Milky Way (above). At 2 billion years, the mutual pull of gravity between the two galaxies brings Andromeda closer, increasing its visibility. At 3.75 billion years, Andromeda and the Milky Way prepare for their initial collision. At 3.85 billion years, the sky brightens from the emergence of newly formed stars. At 3.9 billion years, clouds of ionized gas fill the sky. At 4 billion years, the Milky Way appears warped and Andromeda stretched following their first encounter. At 5.1 billion years, the cores of the Milky Way and Andromeda appear as a pair of bright lobes. At 7 billion years, the two galaxies combine and form a huge elliptical galaxy.
