This NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope Picture of the Week features the galaxy LEDA 22057, which is located about 650 million light-years away in the constellation Gemini. Like the subject of a ...
(RNS) — When you look into the night sky, the naked eye can only make out 2,500 to 3,000 stars, five planets and maybe one to three galaxies, and that’s assuming ideal atmospheric conditions ...
This NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope image features a dusty yet sparkling scene from one of the Milky Way’s satellite galaxies, the Large Magellanic Cloud. The Large Magellanic Cloud is a dwarf ...

This NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope image peers into the dusty recesses of the nearest massive star-forming region to Earth, the Orion Nebula (Messier 42, M42). Just 1,500 light-years away ...
100 years ago, Hubble revealed a universe of galaxies that existed beyond ours — but he couldn't have done it without a little help. If we could go back 101 years, we would encounter a time when ...
But 100 years ago, astronomer Edwin P. Hubble (1889-1953), working at the Mount Wilson Observatory in California, made a stunning discovery: He calculated that a spiral nebula called Andromeda was ...
This discrepancy between model and data became known as the Hubble tension. Now, results published in the Astrophysical Journal Letters provide even stronger support to the faster rate of expansion.
The so-called "Hubble tension" is now becoming a "Hubble crisis", says physicist Dan Solnic, who led the analysis. By this he means that the values for the expansion speed of the universe in the ...
