A comet going 130,000 mph is visiting our solar system from another star. The Hubble telescope just took its picture.

The Hubble Space Telescope has captured the best picture yet of a high-speed comet visiting our solar system from another star. NASA and the European Space Agency released the latest photos Thursday. Discovered last month by a telescope in Chile, the comet known as 3I-Atlas is only the third known interstellar object to pass our way and poses no threat …

Hubble Space Telescope Shows a Diffuse Glow Ahead of 3I/ATLAS | by Avi Loeb | Aug, 2025

Zoom image will be displayed The Hubble Space Telescope image of 3I/ATLAS shows diffuse emission that extends ahead of the object as it approaches the Sun. The yellow and green arrows mark, respectively, the projected negative heliocentric velocity vector and the projected anti-solar direction. (Image credit: Jewitt et al. 2025) Today, two new papers about 3I/ATLAS were posted online. The …

James Webb Space Telescope revisits a classic Hubble image of over 2,500 galaxies

The James Webb Space Telescope has returned to the scene of one of the Hubble Space Telescope’s most iconic images, the Ultra Deep Field, to capture galaxies throughout cosmic history. This new image was taken as part of the JWST Advanced Deep Extragalactic Survey (JADES), which is intent on further probing in infrared light two patches of sky that were …

Hubble Space Telescope spots rogue planet with a little help from Einstein: ‘It was a lucky break’

Hubble Space Telescope spots rogue planet with a little help from Einstein: ‘It was a lucky break’

Astronomers discovered a new rogue planet lurking in archival data gathered by the Hubble Space Telescope, and the find is thanks to a little serendipity — and a little help from the genius himself, Albert Einstein. Rogue, or “free-floating,” planets are worlds that don’t orbit a star. They earn their rogue status when they are ejected from their home systems …

Hubble Snaps Spooky Photos of Mysterious Interstellar Object Headed Toward Earth

Hubble Snaps Spooky Photos of Mysterious Interstellar Object Headed Toward Earth

The Hubble Space Telescope has snapped some spooky looking photos of our solar system’s newest interstellar invader on the run. The object, dubbed 3I/ATLAS, was first spotted careening through the outer limits of the Sun’s domain earlier this month, and appears to be a comet. Upon closer inspection, its speed was found to be so incredible that there could be …

NASA’s Hubble, Chandra Spot Rare Type of Black Hole Eating a Star

NASA’s Hubble, Chandra Spot Rare Type of Black Hole Eating a Star

NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope and NASA’s Chandra X-ray Observatory have teamed up to identify a new possible example of a rare class of black holes. Called NGC 6099 HLX-1, this bright X-ray source seems to reside in a compact star cluster in a giant elliptical galaxy. Just a few years after its 1990 launch, Hubble discovered that galaxies throughout the …
