Here are the eight most beautiful pictures of space captured by NASA.

NASAHubble captured a star-forming region within the Scorpius constellation, approximately 5900 light-years from Earth, within the Milky Way.

The image shows a face-on spiral galaxy split diagonally, with observations from James Webb and Hubble Space Telescopes revealing a striking contrast in light and darkness.

James Webb Space Telescope has released detailed images of 19 spiral galaxies, adding new data to the PHANGS program, a global astronomy project.

The James Webb Space Telescope has discovered N79, a massive star-forming region within the Large Magellanic Cloud, revealing glowing gas, dust, and embedded baby stars at mid-infrared wavelengths.

NASA Webb has captured a pair of actively forming stars, Herbig-Haro 46/47, in high-resolution near-infrared light since its launch in December 2021.

NASAWebb infrared data identifies "Green Monster" structure resembling Fenway Park wall.

NASA Hubble telescope enabled astronomers to observe the connection between supermassive black holes, tidal disruption, and the merging of galaxies.

Spitzer and NASAHubble space telescopes captured penguin and egg-shaped galaxies, 23 million light-years away, 10 times farther from us than the Andromeda galaxy.
