The elliptical galaxy NGC 4660 is one of a hundred galaxies imaged by Hubble that are members of the nearest large galaxy cluster to Earth, the Virgo Cluster. NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope has ...

Curtis argued that the spiral nebulas were galaxies in their own right, but said that the Milky Way was only 10,000 light years across. Shapley argued the opposite. Hubble enters the fray Edwin ...

LEDA 1313424, aptly nicknamed the Bullseye, is two and a half times the size of our Milky Way and has nine rings — six more than any other known galaxy. This NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope image ...

Hubble’s high-resolution imagery allowed researchers to hone in on more of the Bullseye galaxy’s rings — and helped confirm ...

NASA's Hubble captured LEDA 1313424, a galaxy with record-breaking nine star-filled rings, formed by a rare dwarf galaxy ...

Using the Hubble Space Telescope (HST), astronomers have observed a supermassive galactic open cluster designated Westerlund ...

A small blue dwarf galaxy passed through the massive Bullseye galaxy. This impact created nine rings of new stars.

NASA's Hubble Space Telescope has captured a cosmic bullseye. The gargantuan galaxy LEDA 1313424 is rippling with nine star-filled rings after an "arrow"—a far smaller blue dwarf galaxy—shot ...

The discovery was made by Imad Pasha, a doctoral student at Yale University, who stumbled upon the unique galaxy while examining a ground-based imaging survey. "This ...

M. Keck Observatory in Hawaii confirmed a ninth. Hubble and Keck also confirmed which galaxy dove through the Bullseye, creating these rings: the blue dwarf galaxy that sits to its immediate ...

Scientists have discovered an impressive galaxy with Hubble Space Telescope that has six more rings than other previously known galaxies and an arrow-like feature straight through its heart.
