NASA recently reached an incredible milestone in the search for planets beyond our solar system: more than six thousand confirmed exoplanets. From blazing hot Jupiters to mysterious super-Earths and puffy gas giants, each new discovery expands our view of the galaxy and deepens our oldest questions.When the Hubble Space Telescope launched in 1990, not a single exoplanet was known. Yet Hubble’s precision and ultraviolet vision helped pioneer this field, revealing the atmospheres of distant worlds, tracing escaping gases, and uncovering exotic planets unlike anything in our solar system. Its studies have shown planets that are football-shaped, evaporating into space, or as dark as fresh asphalt, each one a testament to nature’s imagination.Today, Hubble continues to team up with NASA’s new generation of observatories like Webb, TESS, and the upcoming Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope to explore these alien worlds in ever greater detail. Together, they’re unraveling what these planets are made of, how they evolve, and whether some might harbor life. As we celebrate 6,000 confirmed exoplanets, we look ahead to the next 6,000 and to the discoveries still waiting beyond our cosmic horizon.For more information, visit science.nasa.gov/mission/hubbleCredit: NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center Paul Morris: Lead ProducerVideo Credits:Artist’s Impression of WASP-121bNASA, ESA, and J.

This work has helped explain an unusual structure in the debris from the destroyed star called the “Green Monster”, first discovered in Webb data in April 2023. The research has also uncovered new details about the explosion that created Cas A about 340 years ago, from Earth’s perspective.A new composite image contains X-rays from Chandra (blue), infrared data from Webb (red, green, blue), and optical data from Hubble (red and white). The outer parts of the image also include infrared data from NASA’s Spitzer Space Telescope (red, green and blue). The outline of the Green Monster can be seen by mousing over the image in the original feature, located here: chandra.cfa.harvard.edu/photo/2024/casa/.The Chandra data reveals hot gas, mostly from supernova debris from the destroyed star, including elements like silicon and iron. In the outer parts of Cas A the expanding blast wave is striking surrounding gas that was ejected by the star before the explosion. The X-rays are produced by energetic electrons spiraling around magnetic field lines in the blast wave. These electrons light up as thin arcs in the outer regions of Cas A, and in parts of the interior. Webb highlights infrared emission from dust that is warmed up because it is embedded in the hot gas seen by Chandra, and from much cooler supernova debris. The Hubble data shows stars in the field.Detailed analysis by the researchers found that filaments in the outer part of Cas A, from the blast wave, closely matched the X-ray properties of the Green Monster, including less iron and silicon than in the supernova debris. This interpretation is apparent from the color Chandra image, which shows that the colors inside the Green Monster’s outline best match with the colors of the blast wave rather than the debris with iron and silicon. The authors conclude that the Green Monster was created by a blast wave from the exploded star slamming into material surrounding it, supporting earlier suggestions from the Webb data alone.The debris from the explosion is seen by Chandra because it is heated to tens of millions of degrees by shock waves, akin to sonic booms from a supersonic plane. Webb can see some material that has not been affected by shock waves, what can be called “pristine” debris.Read more here: chandra.cfa.harvard.edu/photo/2024/casa/. || 53453268481_e80cfca2d4_o.jpg (4200x3386) [7.1 MB] || 53453268481_e80cfca2d4_o_searchweb.png (320x180) [121.1 KB] || 53453268481_e80cfca2d4_o_thm.png (80x40) [15.9 KB] || webb-chandra-hubble-and-spitzer-all-explore-cassiopeia-a-composite-all-4.hwshow || ", "hits": 419 }, { "id": 31290, "url": "https://svs.gsfc.nasa.gov/31290/", "result_type": "Hyperwall Visual", "release_date": "2024-06-13T00:00:00-04:00", "title": "Webb and Hubble's Views of Spiral Galaxy NGC 628", "description": "animated comparison || NGC_628-HST_Webb-1080p.00001_print.jpg (1024x576) [334.0 KB] || NGC_628-HST_Webb-1080p.mp4 (1920x1080) [58.7 MB] || NGC_628-HST_Webb-4k.mp4 (3840x2160) [221.7 MB] || webb-and-hubbles-views-of-spiral-galaxy-ngc-628-4k-movie.hwshow [350 bytes] || ", "hits": 446 }, { "id": 31293, "url": "https://svs.gsfc.nasa.gov/31293/", "result_type": "Hyperwall Visual", "release_date": "2024-06-13T00:00:00-04:00", "title": "Webb, Hubble Telescopes Affirm Universe's Expansion Rate", "description": "This image of NGC 5468, a galaxy located about 130 million light-years from Earth, combines data from the Hubble and James Webb space telescopes.

Webb reveals emerging stellar nurseries and individual stars that are completely hidden in visible-light pictures. This landscape of “mountains” and “valleys” is actually the edge of a nearby stellar nursery called NGC 3324 at the northwest corner of the Carina Nebula.So-called mountains — some towering about 7 light-years high — are speckled with glittering, young stars imaged in infrared light. A cavernous area has been carved from the nebula by the intense ultraviolet radiation and stellar winds from extremely massive, hot, young stars located above the area shown in this image. The blistering, ultraviolet radiation from these stars is sculpting the nebula’s wall by slowly eroding it away. Dramatic pillars rise above the glowing wall of gas, resisting this radiation. The “steam” that appears to rise from the celestial “mountains” is actually hot, ionized gas and hot dust streaming away from the nebula due to the relentless radiation.Objects in the earliest, rapid phases of star formation are difficult to capture, but Webb’s extreme sensitivity, spatial resolution and imaging capability can chronicle these elusive events. || eta-carina-cliffs-webb-STScI-01G8GX1KMWX2XA4PK2EWM7KE3R-hw_resolution_print.jpg (1024x593) [318.7 KB] || eta-carina-cliffs-webb-STScI-01G8GX1KMWX2XA4PK2EWM7KE3R-hw_resolution.png (3840x2224) [10.2 MB] || eta-carina-cliffs-webb-STScI-01G8GX1KMWX2XA4PK2EWM7KE3R.png (14575x8441) [113.7 MB] || eta-carina-cliffs-webb-STScI-01G8GX1KMWX2XA4PK2EWM7KE3R-hw_resolution_searchweb.png (320x180) [116.3 KB] || eta-carina-cliffs-webb-STScI-01G8GX1KMWX2XA4PK2EWM7KE3R-hw_resolution_thm.png (80x40) [13.5 KB] || eta-carina-cliffs-webb-STScI-01G8GX1KMWX2XA4PK2EWM7KE3R.png.dzi [179 bytes] || eta-carina-cliffs-webb-STScI-01G8GX1KMWX2XA4PK2EWM7KE3R.png_files [4.0 KB] || the-webb-space-telescope-studies-the-cosmic-cliffs-in-ngc-3324-still.hwshow [430 bytes] || ", "hits": 455 }, { "id": 31287, "url": "https://svs.gsfc.nasa.gov/31287/", "result_type": "Hyperwall Visual", "release_date": "2024-06-12T00:00:00-04:00", "title": "Webb and Hubble Combine to Create Most Colorful View of Universe", "description": "This panchromatic view of galaxy cluster MACS0416 was created by combining infrared observations from NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope with visible-light data from NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope. To make the image, in general the shortest wavelengths of light were color-coded blue, the longest wavelengths red, and intermediate wavelengths green. The resulting wavelength coverage, from 0.4 to 5 microns, reveals a vivid landscape of galaxies that could be described as one of the most colorful views of the universe ever created.MACS0416 is a galaxy cluster located about 4.3 billion light-years from Earth, meaning that light we see now left the cluster shortly after the formation of our solar system. This cluster magnifies the light from more distant background galaxies through gravitational lensing. As a result, the research team has been able to identify magnified supernovae and even very highly magnified individual stars.Those colors give clues to galaxy distances: The bluest galaxies are relatively nearby and often show intense star formation, as best detected by Hubble, while the redder galaxies tend to be more distant, or else contain copious amount of dust, as detected by Webb. The image reveals a wealth of details that are only possible to capture by combining the power of both space telescopes.In this image, blue represents data at wavelengths of 0.435 and 0.606 microns (Hubble filters F435W and F606W); cyan is 0.814, 0.9, and 1.05 microns (Hubble filters F814W, and F105W and Webb filter F090W); green is 1.15, 1.25, 1.4, 1.5, and 1.6 microns (Hubble filters F125W, F140W, and F160W, and Webb filters F115W and F150W); yellow is 2.00 and 2.77 microns (Webb filters F200W, and F277W); orange is 3.56 microns (Webb filter F356W); and red represents data at 4.1 and 4.44 microns (Webb filters F410M and F444W). || STScI-01HDHAVM4K4220Z79YTMP1K7VM-composite_print.jpg (1024x949) [349.8 KB] || STScI-01HDHAVM4K4220Z79YTMP1K7VM-composite.png (4457x4133) [34.6 MB] || STScI-01HDHAVM4K4220Z79YTMP1K7VM-composite-hw.png (3840x2160) [9.6 MB] || STScI-01HDHAVM4K4220Z79YTMP1K7VM-composite_searchweb.png (320x180) [105.9 KB] || STScI-01HDHAVM4K4220Z79YTMP1K7VM-composite_thm.png (80x40) [13.0 KB] || webb-and-hubble-combine-to-create-most-colorful-view-of-universe-composite-image.hwshow [394 bytes] || ", "hits": 410 }, { "id": 31286, "url": "https://svs.gsfc.nasa.gov/31286/", "result_type": "Hyperwall Visual", "release_date": "2024-05-28T00:00:00-04:00", "title": "Webb Space Telescope Studies the Pillars of Creation", "description": "Webb MIRI ImageNASA’s James Webb Space Telescope’s mid-infrared view of the Pillars of Creation strikes a chilling tone. Thousands of stars that exist in this region disappear – and seemingly endless layers of gas and dust become the centerpiece.The detection of dust by Webb’s Mid-Infrared Instrument (MIRI) is extremely important – dust is a major ingredient for star formation. Many stars are actively forming in these dense blue-gray pillars. When knots of gas and dust with sufficient mass form in these regions, they begin to collapse under their own gravitational attraction, slowly heat up – and eventually form new stars.Although the stars appear missing, they aren’t. Stars typically do not emit much mid-infrared light. Instead, they are easiest to detect in ultraviolet, visible, and near-infrared light. In this MIRI view, two types of stars can be identified. The stars at the end of the thick, dusty pillars have recently eroded the material surrounding them. They show up in red because their atmospheres are still enshrouded in cloaks of dust. In contrast, blue tones indicate stars that are older and have shed most of their gas and dust.Mid-infrared light also details dense regions of gas and dust. The red region toward the top, which forms a delicate V shape, is where the dust is both diffuse and cooler. And although it may seem like the scene clears toward the bottom left of this view, the darkest gray areas are where densest and coolest regions of dust lie. Notice that there are many fewer stars and no background galaxies popping into view.Webb’s mid-infrared data will help researchers determine exactly how much dust is in this region – and what it’s made of. These details will make models of the Pillars of Creation far more precise. Over time, we will begin to more clearly understand how stars form and burst out of these dusty clouds over millions of years. || STScI-01GFRYYRTCTMX197BY86MBFCR9-pillars.png (1987x1817) [4.1 MB] || STScI-01GFRYYRTCTMX197BY86MBFCR9-pillars-hwres_print.jpg (1024x576) [125.2 KB] || STScI-01GFRYYRTCTMX197BY86MBFCR9-pillars-hwres.png (3840x2160) [4.3 MB] || STScI-01GFRYYRTCTMX197BY86MBFCR9-pillars-hwres_searchweb.png (320x180) [65.3 KB] || STScI-01GFRYYRTCTMX197BY86MBFCR9-pillars-hwres_thm.png (80x40) [7.3 KB] || webb-space-telescope-studies-the-pillars-of-creation.hwshow [368 bytes] || ", "hits": 223 }, { "id": 31284, "url": "https://svs.gsfc.nasa.gov/31284/", "result_type": "Hyperwall Visual", "release_date": "2024-05-27T00:00:00-04:00", "title": "The Webb Space Telescope Studies the Southern Ring Nebula", "description": "Webb Space Telescope NIRCam image || southern-ring-nebula_00433_print.jpg (1024x576) [198.6 KB] || southern-ring-nebula_00433.png (3840x2160) [8.6 MB] || NGC_3132_webb_NIRCam-STScI-01G8GZQ3ZFJRD8YF8YZWMAXCE3.png (4833x4501) [21.3 MB] || southern-ring-nebula_00433_searchweb.png (320x180) [90.4 KB] || southern-ring-nebula_00433_thm.png (80x40) [6.2 KB] || the-webb-space-telescope-studies-the-southern-ring-nebula-nircam-view.hwshow [274 bytes] || ", "hits": 202 }, { "id": 14470, "url": "https://svs.gsfc.nasa.gov/14470/", "result_type": "Produced Video", "release_date": "2023-12-12T09:55:00-05:00", "title": "Then and Now – Hubble’s Servicing Mission 1 (Ken Bowersox)", "description": "Dive into the cosmic journey of astronaut Ken Bowersox, a key player in the success of Hubble's Servicing Mission 1.

It’s estimated that our galaxy is littered with 100 million small black holes (several times the mass of our Sun) created from exploded stars. The universe at large is flooded with supermassive black holes, weighing millions or billions of times our Sun’s mass and found in the centers of galaxies.A long-sought missing link is an intermediate-mass black hole, weighing in somewhere between 199 and 10,000 solar masses.

Interspersed with inventive live action footage also designed to make use of that vast canvas, this six and a half minute presentation captivates and moves viewers.PURSUIT OF LIGHT was designed expressly for a screen technology called The Hyperwall, a system largely perfected at NASA Goddard Space Flight Center. The Hyperwall itself is a platform best suited for big themes. With colossal screen resolution and an ultrawide presentational style, moving images played there take on a vast sense of scale and power. PURSUIT OF LIGHT employs the strength of this remarkable system and pushes it further than ever before, presenting stories about the Earth, The Moon, The Sun, The Planets, and the deep sky, wrapped in poetic implication about the humanity's imperative need to explore. This show will play prominently on touring Hyperwalls around the country as well as on the web. || ", "hits": 32 }, { "id": 10776, "url": "https://svs.gsfc.nasa.gov/10776/", "result_type": "Produced Video", "release_date": "2011-05-19T00:00:00-04:00", "title": "Webb Mirror Size Comparison with Hubble Animation", "description": "Animation comparing the relative sizes of James Webb's primary mirror to Hubble's primary mirror. || ", "hits": 60 }, { "id": 10747, "url": "https://svs.gsfc.nasa.gov/10747/", "result_type": "Produced Video", "release_date": "2011-04-28T09:00:00-04:00", "title": "Swift and Hubble Probe an Asteroid Crash", "description": "Late last year, astronomers noticed that an asteroid named Scheila had unexpectedly brightened and it was sporting short-lived plumes. Data from NASA's Swift satellite and Hubble Space Telescope show that these changes likely occurred after Scheila was struck by a much smaller asteroid. On Dec. 11, 2010, images from the University of Arizona's Catalina Sky Survey, a project of NASA's Near Earth Object Observations Program, revealed the Scheila to be twice as bright as expected and immersed in a faint comet-like glow. Looking through the survey's archived images, astronomers inferred the outburst began between Nov. 11 and Dec. 3. Three days after the outburst was announced, Swift's Ultraviolet/Optical Telescope (UVOT) captured multiple images and a spectrum of the asteroid. Ultraviolet sunlight breaks up the gas molecules surrounding comets; water, for example, is transformed into hydroxyl (OH) and hydrogen (H). But none of the emissions most commonly identified in comets — such as hydroxyl or cyanogen (CN) — show up in the UVOT spectrum. The absence of gas around Scheila led the Swift team to reject scenarios where exposed ice accounted for the activity.Images show the asteroid was flanked in the north by a bright dust plume and in the south by a fainter one. The dual plumes formed as small dust particles excavated by the impact were pushed away from the asteroid by sunlight. Hubble observed the asteroid's fading dust cloud on Dec. 27, 2010, and Jan. 4, 2011.The two teams found the observations were best explained by a collision with a small asteroid impacting Scheila's surface at an angle of less than 30 degrees, leaving a crater 1,000 feet across. Laboratory experiments show a more direct strike probably wouldn't have produced two distinct dust plumes. The researchers estimated the crash ejected more than 660,000 tons of dust—equivalent to nearly twice the mass of the Empire State Building.For the collision animation go to #10759. || ", "hits": 80 }, { "id": 10619, "url": "https://svs.gsfc.nasa.gov/10619/", "result_type": "Produced Video", "release_date": "2010-07-22T00:00:00-04:00", "title": "20 Years of Hubble Science", "description": "This video series focuses on two areas of science that the Hubble Space Telescope has helped advance: thee formation and evolution of galaxies and detection of extrasolar planets. || ", "hits": 138 }, { "id": 3725, "url": "https://svs.gsfc.nasa.gov/3725/", "result_type": "Visualization", "release_date": "2010-06-18T00:00:00-04:00", "title": "NCCS Hyperwall Show: Earth Observing Fleet with GEOS-5 Clouds", "description": "A newer version of this visualization can be found here.This visualization is an update to a previous visualization of NASA's Earth observing fleet of spacecraft. Also incuded in this version are a couple of commercial spacecraft as well as the International Space Station and the Hubble Space Telescope. The spacecraft ephemerides are from February 2010.The clouds are from a simulation using the Goddard Earth Observing System Model, Verison 5 (GEOS-5). The global atmospheric simulation ran at a resolution of 7-km per grid cell and covered a period from Feb 2, 2010 through Feb 22, 2010. The results of the simulation were written out at 30 minute intervals.This visualization was created for display on the NASA Center for Climate Simulation (NCCS) hyperwall. This is a set of tiled high definition displays consisting of 5 displays across by 3 displays down. The full resolution of all combined displays is 6840 pixels across by 2304 pixels down. This movie was rendered at this high resolution, then diced up into images to be displayed on each screen. || ", "hits": 98 }, { "id": 10564, "url": "https://svs.gsfc.nasa.gov/10564/", "result_type": "Produced Video", "release_date": "2010-02-03T00:00:00-05:00", "title": "Hubble IMAX: Educator Resources", "description": "Table of Contents+ Build a Robotic Arm+ Communication Station+ Images from Hubble Simulation Build a Robotic Arm || See a robotic arm at work in the \"Servicing Mission 4 Essentials\" site at http://www.nasa.gov/mission_pages/hubble/servicing/SM4/main/SM4_Essentials.html. || build_a_mission_tool_272861main_ess_2astronauts_arm_600x400.jpg (600x400) [240.0 KB] || build_a_mission_tool_272861main_ess_2astronauts_arm_600x400_web.png (320x213) [344.6 KB] || ", "hits": 19 } ] }
