Hubble werpt nieuw licht op de atmosferische samenstelling en dynamiek van Uranus

Een 20 jaar durend Hubble-onderzoek van Uranus heeft waardevolle gegevens opgeleverd voor het begrijpen van de atmosferische dynamiek van deze verre ijsreus. Deze gegevens kunnen dienen als basis voor het bestuderen van exoplan

Hubble Space Telescope fotografeerde NGC 3274

Astronomen hebben met behulp van de Hubble Space Telescope nieuwe opnames gemaakt van het spiraalstelsel NGC 4941.

Deze Hubble-afbeelding toont NGC 4941, een spiraalvormig sterrenstelsel op zo'n 67 miljoen lichtjaar afstand in het sterrenbeeld Maagd. De kleurenafbeelding is samengesteld uit nabij-infr

Starry Time Podcast

You know we love 1) Neptune (love them nep-toots) & Aurora, so this new image from #JWST is *perfection*

If you too love Neptune, check out our episode on the Nereids, where we explore some of Neptune's moons: starrytimepodcast.podbean.com/

If you love aurora, check out our episode on the science & lore of Earth's aurora: starrytimepodcast.podbean.com/

From source in toot: At the left, an enhanced-color image of Neptune from NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope. At the right, that image is combined with data from NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope. The cyan splotches, which represent auroral activity, and white clouds, are data from Webb’s Near-Infrared Spectrograph (NIRSpec), overlayed on top of the full image of the planet from Hubble’s Wide Field Camera 3.

Awww, every time I see an image from #Hubble now, the first thing I think is, "Aw, bless."

(As opposed to #JWST, at which I often goggle in utter amazement.)

All joking aside, they've both been great advances for humanity and for science.

I'm a big fan of any and all #space news and cool space photos, but still, since the JWST went up, it really has been knocking my socks off!

Hubble image of Arp 188, also known as the Tadpole Galaxy.

Seen shining through the Tadpole's disk, a tiny blue intruder galaxy likely caused the Tadpole's distorted shape. Gravitational interactions created the long tail of debris, stars and gas that stretch out more than 280,000 light-years.

In the upper left corner is a spiral galaxy with a bright white central core encircled by two wispy arms that form a loose spiral around the core. The view is somewhat oblique, giving the galaxy an oval appearance. A long, thin, diffuse stream of stars and gas extends from the lower right side of the galaxy down to the lower right corner of the image. The spiral arms and the tail are dotted with blue stars. Scattered across the background there are hundreds tiny smudges of light that vary slightly in size, shape, and color. Most appear in the shape of small dots, ovals, or lines. They come in different shades of white, orange, red, and blue.
