Trouble with one of the Hubble Space Telescope's three remaining gyroscopes, critical for aiming and locking onto targets, has prompted mission managers to switch to a backup control mode that will ...
Vesto Slipher first observed that galaxies are moving away from us. Edwin Hubble later showed a relationship between galaxy distance and speed. Hubble's work relied heavily on Slipher's earlier data.
In a surprise finding, astronomers using NASA's Hubble Space Telescope have discovered that the blowtorch-like jet from a supermassive black hole at the core of a huge galaxy seems to cause stars to ...

Hubble has taken the clearest image to date of the interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS, which is racing through our solar system at 130,000 miles per hour. Astronomers are using Hubble and other telescopes to ...
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. At a town ...
New research suggests that a troubling disparity in the rate of expansion of the universe, known as the Hubble constant, may arise from the fact Earth sits in a vast underdense region of the cosmos.
The Hubble Space Telescope is still trucking along more than 30 years after its launch, observing the universe and sending home images for us to marvel at. This week, NASA and ESA highlighted an image ...
WASHINGTON — NASA will extend the life of the Hubble Space Telescope by switching to a mode where the spacecraft operates on a single gyroscope, having rejected for now commercial proposals to reboost ...
During its 35 years of orbiting the Earth, the Hubble Space Telescope has transmitted endless streams of magnificent images, confirmed the existence of "dark matter," and helped track a vagabond black ...
