This new image from NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope shows interacting galaxies known as AM 1214-255. These galaxies contain active galactic nuclei, or AGNs. An AGN is an extraordinarily luminous central region of a galaxy. Its extreme brightness is caused by matter whirling into a supermassive black hole at the galaxy’s heart. Hubble observed the galaxy closes...
Two neutron stars begin to merge in this illustration, blasting a jet of high-speed particles and producing a cloud of debris. These gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are the most powerful events in the universe. Scientists think these kinds of events are factories for a significant portion of the universe’s heavy elements, including gold. They based their estimates o...
“I think that getting to be a crewmember on the International Space Station, and getting to serve there over the course of two long-duration stays, we really feel like we are bridge-builders. “We are actively building the bridge to the Moon and then on to Mars. We, and the science that we do and the operations we conduct, are bringing together th...
A menagerie of interesting astronomical finds are visible in this image from the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope. In addition to several large elliptical galaxies, a ring-shaped galaxy is lurking on the right of the image. A pair of bright stars are also visible at the left of the image, notable for their colorful crisscrossing diffraction spikes. This colle...

This view of the Antennae Galaxies, two large galaxies colliding 60 million light-years away, is one of the first research images from the Super Pressure Balloon Imaging Telescope (SuperBIT) that launched on a scientific super pressure balloon April 16, 2023 (local time New Zealand). This image and one of the Tarantula Nebula were captured as the balloon-bor...
This April 16, 2023, enhanced color image of NASA’s Ingenuity Mars Helicopter is the clearest view of the rotorcraft since its first flight. Ingenuity completed its 50th flight on April 13, 2023; the helicopter’s first flight on Mars was two years ago on April 19, 2021. This picture was taken by the Mastcam-Z instrument aboard the Perseverance ro...
Clouds gather over Nepal near Mount Everest (center) in this April 13, 2023, photograph from the International Space Station. This image was taken as the station orbited 263 miles above the Indian subcontinent. In addition to photography, instruments on the space station like the Compact Ocean Wind Vector Radiometer and the Temporal Experiment for Storms and...
