science.nasa.govNASA Celebrates Edwin Hubble's Discovery of a New Universe - NASA ScienceFor humans, the most important star in the universe is our Sun. The second-most important star is nestled inside the Andromeda galaxy. Don’t go looking for it — the flickering star is 2.2 million light-years away, and is 1/100,000th the brightness of the faintest star visible to the human eye. Yet, a century ago, its […]

science.nasa.govNASA's Hubble Tracks Down a 'Blue Lurker' Among Stars - NASA ScienceThe name “blue lurker” might sound like a villainous character from a superhero movie. But it is a rare class of star that NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope explored by looking deeply into the open star cluster M67, roughly 2,800 light-years away. Forensics with Hubble data show that the star has had a tumultuous life, mixing […]

science.nasa.govHubble Reveals Surprising Spiral Shape of Galaxy Hosting Young Jet - NASA ScienceThe night sky has always played a crucial role in navigation, from early ocean crossings to modern GPS. Besides stars, the United States Navy uses quasars as beacons. Quasars are distant galaxies with supermassive black holes, surrounded by brilliantly hot disks of swirling gas that can blast off jets of material. Following up on the groundbreaking 2020 discovery of […]
