AI Identifies More Than 1,300 Unusual Objects in Hubble Space Telescope Images
Artificial intelligence has combed through decades of Hubble Space Telescope data, revealing hundreds of unusual celestial objects that astronomers had missed. ESA’s AnomalyMatch neural network scanned around 100 million image cutouts in just days, flagging more than 1,300 anomalies. Among them are colliding galaxies, rare gravitational lenses, a...

Hubble Reveals How Blue Straggler Stars Stay Young in Ancient Clusters
Astronomers using the Hubble Space Telescope have uncovered new clues to the mystery of blue straggler stars—unusually hot, bright stars found in ancient globular clusters. By studying ultraviolet light from 48 clusters, scientists discovered that blue stragglers are more common in sparse clusters, supporting the idea that they form through binar...

Hubble Telescope Spots Starless Dark Matter Cloud Cloud 9, Opening Window Into Dark Universe
Hubble has discovered Cloud 9, a starless dark-matter cloud near galaxy M94, offering scientists a rare chance to study early galaxy formation. This failed galaxy, part of a class known as RELHICs, shows hydrogen gas but no star formation, highlighting the role of dark matter in shaping the cosmos and revealing potential hidden structures in our lo...

James Webb Telescope Finds Rare Cosmic Dust in One of the Universe’s Most Primitive Galaxies
A breakthrough has been made in the area of astrophysics as NASA’s James Webb Telescope has spotted two rare kinds of dust in the Early-Universe Analog.

Hubble Telescope Detects Wake of Betelgeuse’s Hidden Companion Star, Confirming Long-Held Theory
Hubble Telescope observations have revealed a dense gas wake in Betelgeuse’s atmosphere, confirming the presence of a hidden companion star named Siwarha. The discovery explains the red supergiant’s unusual brightness changes and offers new insight into how massive stars evolve and shed material before becoming supernovae.

Hubble Telescope Discovers Cloud-9, A New Type of Astronomical Object
Cloud-9 contains no stars, making it a unique object for studying dark matter, and the cloud is composed of neutral hydrogen gas.

Hubble Observations Turn Exoplanet Into Dust; Reveal Rare Double Asteroid Impact in Nearby System
NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope has revealed that a vanished exoplanet near the star Fomalhaut was never a planet at all. Scientists discovered two rare, violent collisions between asteroid-sized bodies, producing glowing debris clouds that briefly mimicked planets. The findings offer a rare glimpse into how planetary systems evolve and how mislead...

"Dracula's Chivito": Astronomers Use Hubble To Capture Largest Birthplace Of Planets Ever Found
Joshua Bennett Lovell, who is a co-investigator, said that they were "stunned" to see how asymmetric this disk is.

Hubble Captures Gas Escaping Sideways Spiral Galaxy NGC 4388 in Virgo Cluster
Hubble has captured a glowing plume of gas escaping the spiral galaxy NGC 4388 in the Virgo cluster. Moving through hot intracluster gas, the galaxy sheds material, partially energised by its central black hole. Multi-wavelength observations reveal the impact of both environmental forces and central activity on galaxy evolution.
