For 15 years, one nearby exoplanet refused to reveal its secrets, its spectrum stubbornly flat, its atmosphere unreadable.

The image Hubble captured was of the Egg Nebula, in the constellation Cygnus, about 1,000 light-years away, according to NASA.

Since the 1990s, astronomers have found a handful of other dwarf planets in the belt, such as Eris and Sedna, along with ...

The telescope primarily detects light in the infrared in order to observe sources such as the first galaxies and protostars.

This image from NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope released on Feb. 10, 2026, reveals a dramatic interplay of light and shadow in the Egg Nebula, sculpted by freshly ejected stardust. Located approximately ...

An international team of astronomers has conducted photometric and spectroscopic observations of a recently discovered ...

A dazzling new Hubble image peels back the layers of the mysterious Egg Nebula, a rare and fleeting phase in a Sun-like star’s death just 1,000 light-years away. Hidden inside a dense cocoon of dust, ...

While that light and dust creates an artistic shape, the image is also giving researchers clues to what’s happening to the pre-planetary nebula. The shape of the dust, NASA explains, hints at gravity ...
