LOS ANGELES, 14th February, 2026 (WAM) -- Astronomers tracking the movements of Comet 41P/Tuttle-Giacobini-Kresak have found that it appears to have slowed its rotation, before the direction of its ...
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, ...
A fresh analysis of Comet 41P/Tuttle-Giacobini-Kresák observations suggests it abruptly reversed its spin after its last ...
The Egg Nebula, located around 1,000 light years away, is home to a dying star entering last phase of its life.
NASA and SpaceX will both provide live coverage of the Crew-12 mission to the International Space Station. Here's how to watch.
41P/Tuttle-Giacobini-Kresak is now known to be in the Jupiter family of comets, going from a little inside Jupiter's orbit to almost as far as Earth on its 5.4-year orbit. It is notable for its large ...
First its rotation slowed between March and May 2017, taking 46 hours to complete a spin where it had once taken only 20 hours. This occurred as the comet neared its closest point to the sun, roughly ...
Captured in stunning detail by the Hubble Space Telescope, the Carina Nebula reveals a turbulent region where stars are ...
It's the final act for a star in the constellation Cygnus, some 1,000 light-years away. But this star is not dying without one final show, it appears — and NASA's Hubble Space Telescope has captured ...
NASA said Tuesday the Hubble Space Telescope has revealed a dramatic interplay of light and shadow in what’s called the Egg Nebula.
Hubble keeps returning to the Egg Nebula because it changes in ways astronomers can actually track over years and decades. By comparing images taken at different times, scientists can see dust shift, ...
The planet's radius from pole to center has been revised to 66,842 km, and at the equator to 71,488 km. That makes it about ...
