NASA recently released five breathtaking images captured by the Hubble Space Telescope. These stunning photos showcase five extraordinary celestial objects, offering fresh insights into galaxy formation, star clusters, and cosmic events.
NASA has discovered that a dwarf galaxy orbits the Andromeda Galaxy in a flat plane, much like planets orbit the Sun. This unusual formation has left astronomers puzzled, as it contrasts with the random motions that galaxy models typically predict.
NASA's observation of NGC 261 reveals stars that are so hot they cause surrounding hydrogen gas to emit a pink-red glow. This region also contains dense molecular clouds, where new stars are born, nestled within cold areas of molecular hydrogen.
NASA's NGC 346 is a star cluster situated in the Small Magellanic Cloud, close to the Milky Way. The hot stars within this cluster emit intense radiation and powerful outflows, gradually wearing away the gas and dust in the surrounding nebula, N66.
NASA's Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) hosts NGC 1898, a globular cluster of stars. This cluster is a natural laboratory for studying star formation, as it is one of the oldest objects in the universe.
NASA's Tucana Dwarf galaxy, located on the edge of the Local Group, is one of the most distant galaxies near the Milky Way. Its smaller size and dimmer appearance make it a cosmic fossil, as it contains isolated older stars.
