200,000 orbits and counting 🌎
On Sept. 19, Hubble completed its 200,000th orbit around Earth — here’s an observation completed on the big day!
This image shows a cluster of galaxies called MACS J0417: https://t.co/ZhxRbn6uCn https://t.co/WrTqpajnxI

Breaking free 💨
M90 is part of the Virgo Cluster of galaxies... for now. Its orbit through the cluster has accelerated so much that it's in the process of escaping the gravitational hold of the cluster entirely: https://t.co/GmQ00NNPQQ https://t.co/ENkuk4FDob

NGC 7541 is above average! 🏅
This galaxy boasts a higher-than-usual star formation rate. A bar of stars and gas that intersects its center might be the reason why!
This bar likely funnels in the material and fuel needed to create and nurture new stars: https://t.co/A1I62vldSC h

NGC 4698 is one of only a few known spiral galaxies with a central bulge that extends out from its disk at a right angle.
The elongation is faintly visible, with the ghostly glow of the starry bulge peeking above and below the dusty disk: https://t.co/0VSL0hDDpw https://t.co/2UV

Eye see you 👁️
NGC 3918 resembles a piercing cosmic eye, but in reality, this is a nebula created by a dying star casting off its outer layers of material: https://t.co/qAA7YLHgav https://t.co/6s3nIFdXWO

Group shot!
In this image of galaxy NGC 4258, @chandraxray data (royal blue) show superheated shockwaves created by black hole jets, along with Hubble's optical data (red, yellow, pale blue) and @NASAWebb's infrared view of dust filaments (orange): https://t.co/BHOg1GR5Qx https:

Born anew ✨
The star cluster M30 is home to some "blue stragglers" – old stars that reclaim their youth in near head-on collisions with other stars, or by siphoning hydrogen from a larger, orbiting companion star: https://t.co/JMmiRARAQS https://t.co/0AK0YRGbPa

Orbiting the Sun far beyond Neptune, "Trans-Neptunian Objects" are surviving relics from our solar system's formation.
Hubble and @NASAWebb studied the color, composition, and size distribution of 27 newly discovered tiny, dim TNOs: https://t.co/JbjqNu1ffd https://t.co/2LrYLgb0J

Not just a bubble... a superbubble!
With powerful stellar winds and explosive supernovae, the stars within this central "void" expelled much of the gas from which they were born, sweeping it away: https://t.co/WHpnsvAjo3 https://t.co/TNHWelLeKM

NGC 1466 is known for its extremes: the mass of this star cluster is equivalent to about 140,000 Suns!
Plus, its age is a whopping 13.1 billion years... almost as old as the universe itself.

Safe travels, Roman!
The Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope's wide-field views will change what we know about the universe! Its complementary capabilities to Hubble and @NASAWebb make it a powerful new member of NASA's telescope team.

The Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope has officially launched and is heading to its forever home at L2!
Over the next three months, the observatory will perform final checks and power its instruments before revealing its first images by early 2027.

Spread your wings 🪽
An aging star at the center of the nebula Hen 2-437 casts off spectacularly symmetrical lobes of gas.
Hen 2-437 resides in the faint northern constellation of Vulpecula (The Fox): https://t.co/9W4NWqD4Hh https://t.co/fYW2AUOjPe
