NATIONAL HARBOR, Md. — Proposed budget reductions for the Hubble Space Telescope would impact research and outreach as well as increase the risk to the observatory, project officials warn.

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 ...

This discrepancy between model and data became known as the Hubble tension. Now, results provide even stronger support to the faster rate of expansion. A new measurement confirms what previous ...

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.

Now, astronomers have used the Hubble Space Telescope to capture hundreds of detailed images of our vast galactic neighbor, creating the largest-ever photomosaic of the galaxy. It took over 10 ...

The Hubble Space Telescope, for comparison, has a 6.5-foot (2 m) aperture, he said. Breaking space news, the latest updates on rocket launches, skywatching events and more! Even the smallest ...

This NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope image features the spiral galaxy NGC 2566, which sits 76 million light-years away in the constellation Puppis. A prominent bar of stars stretches across the ...

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 ...

Why it's so special: This stunning image from the Hubble Space Telescope depicts a star-forming region called Sharpless 2-106, or S106 for short. Characterized by its "wings," it is classified as ...

New imagery has been released from NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope, which captured a photo of a spiral galaxy more than 76 million light-years away from Earth. The galaxy known to observers as NGC ...

In 2003, the Hubble Space Telescope detected what appeared to be the oldest known planet, a massive world clocking in at about 13 billion years old. The discovery raised questions about how such ...
