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.

Vera C. Rubin Observatory Unveils First Images, Hints at Universe’s Dynamic Secrets Ahead
The Rubin Observatory’s first image captures 10 million galaxies, marking the start of a decade-long sky survey. With its powerful telescope and LSST camera, it will scan the southern sky every three nights, unveiling hidden galaxies, stellar nurseries, and transient cosmic events. Scientists anticipate transformative discoveries about dark matte...

Hubble Space Telescope Unveils IC 3225, the Cannonball Galaxy in Virgo
The Hubble Space Telescope has captured a remarkable image of the spiral galaxy IC 3225, which resembles a cannonball moving through space. Located approximately 100 million light-years away in the Virgo galaxy cluster, IC 3225 exhibits distinct features, including a bright, star-forming arm and a tail of gas. The galaxy's unusual shape results fro...
