This image stands out as one of the most striking examples of the numerous turbulent stellar nurseries that the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope has observed throughout its 30-year mission.
The central region of the image, which includes the star cluster, combines visible-light data captured by the Advanced Camera for Surveys with near-infrared exposures from the Wide Field Camera 3.
The image shows the Eagle Nebula’s Pillars of Creation in visible light, highlighting the colourful gas clouds, dark cosmic dust, and the reddish-brown formations resembling elephants’ trunks.
This NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope image features GAL-CLUS-022058s, a narrow galaxy curving around its spherical companion, exemplifying a rare phenomenon in the Fornax constellation.
This image features NGC 2525, a captivating galaxy about 70 million light-years away in the Puppis constellation, part of the Argo shape from ancient Greek mythology alongside Carina and Vela.
The latest Hubble Space Telescope image shows NGC 3603, a star-forming region that hosts one of the most remarkable young star clusters in the Milky Way.
The Bubble Nebula, or NGC 7635, is an emission nebula located 8,000 light-years away. This striking new image was captured by the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope to mark its 26th year in space.
The NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope has captured its best image of the Antennae Galaxies, having previously released images in 1997 and 2006.
This image displays the region in infrared light, which penetrates the dust that typically obscures the nebula's inner areas.
