NASA's Hubble Telescope Captures Active Galaxy M88 With Giant Black Hole
Scientists say these changes are likely to influence M88's ability to form stars in the future and will ultimately alter the course of its evolution.

NASA's James Webb Telescope Captures Dazzling New Image Of Spiral Galaxy
At the centre of M77 is an active galactic nucleus, a compact region filled with hot gas that shines brighter than the rest of the galaxy combined.

Canadian Astrophotographer Captures Stunning Sunflower Galaxy from Ontario
Astrophotographer Ronald Brecher has captured a magnificent image of Messier 63, famously known as the Sunflower Galaxy, from his backyard observatory in Guelph, Ontario. With over 13 hours of exposures taken using a Celestron 14" EDGE HD telescope and advanced imaging filters, the spiral galaxy’s fragmented arms and bright core are revealed in s...

Supermassive Black Hole Jets Spark Increased Nova Explosions, Hubble Discovers
Recent findings from the Hubble Space Telescope reveal that supermassive black hole jets may be responsible for an increase in nova explosions in nearby double-star systems. This unexpected connection indicates that the energetic jets emitted by black holes can influence the surrounding stellar environment, leading to heightened activity in nova er...

'Completely Invisible, Yet Unbelievably Influential': NASA Explains How Spiral Galaxies Get Their Shape
NASA has shared a stunning photograph on Instagram of a galaxy called M77, and has offered a brief explanation of how it has been “shaped.” For a long time, the shapes of many galaxies, including our own Milky Way, have puzzled many scientists. The Milky Way is spiral-shaped and has arms full of stars. However, have you ever wondered how it got...

Unexpected Number Of Hot Jupiters Found In Star Cluster
Astronomers have found that there are far more planets of the hot Jupiter type than expected in a cluster of stars called Messier 67, a finding that may help better understand planet formation.

NASA Finds Giant Burping Black Hole 26 Million Light Years Away
NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory has found evidence of powerful blasts of gases produced by a super massive black hole about 26 million light years from Earth, an event that may trigger the formation of new stars.
