Hubble Observes Jupiter’s Great Red Spot Changing
Like the speed of an advancing race car driver, the winds in the outermost “lane” of Jupiter’s Great Red Spot are accelerating – a discovery only made possible by NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope, which has monitored the planet for more...

How can Hubble see distant galaxies clearly, but not Pluto?
Hubble has taken some spectacular images of many different galaxies, but it can't resolve more than a few blobs on Pluto's surface. Why is that?

Hubble finds a Black Hole Igniting Star Formation in a Dwarf Galaxy
Black holes are often described as the monsters of the universe—tearing apart stars, consuming anything that comes too close, and holding light captive. Detailed evidence from NASA's Hubble Space Telescope, however, shows a black hole in...
