The James Webb Space Telescope is spotting “deep field” galaxies in a fraction of the time required by Hubble, providing a tantalizing hint of things to come.
The Hubble Space Telescope finds a globular cluster with a population of helium-rich red giants that raises questions about currently accepted theories regarding how such clusters form.
Using space- and ground-based telescopes, astronomers get a rare look at two quasars in the process of merging just 3 billion years after the Big Bang.
Gravitational lensing helps astronomers find one of the most massive black holes yet discovered, a 30-billion solar mass monster at the heart of a remote galaxy.
To better understand the origins of the most massive galaxies in the universe, astronomers are on the lookout for galactic mergers . The Hubble Space Telesacope captured a prime example with three galaxies in the process of colliding.
The James Webb Space Telescope takes a look at the “Pillars of Creation” at the heart of the Eagle Nebula, providing a stunning update to one of Hubble’s most iconic images.
