CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. (AP) — 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 …

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 …

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 …

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 …

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 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 …

The Hubble Space Telescope has caught its first glimpse of comet 3I/ATLAS. The comet is just the third object humanity has observed entering the solar system from beyond its limits. Prior to 3I/ATLAS, the previous two “interstellar invaders” were 1I/’Oumuamua, spotted in 2017, and 2I/Borisov, detected in 2019. Both have now left the solar system, though other interstellar bodies are …
