- Reflection Nebula NGC 1788. A reflection nebula is a cloud of gas and dust that does not emit light of its own. They only shine by reflecting light from nearby stars. (KPNO/NOIRLab/NSF/AURA/T.A. Rector, H. Schweiker & S. Pakzad) #nebula #universe #cosmos #stars #interstellar
- The Taffy Galaxies, UGC 12914 and UGC 12915. They experienced a head on collision 25 million years ago which created a bridge of turbulent gas spanning the gap between them. (International Gemini Observatory/NOIRLab/NSF/AURA) #space #galaxies #cosmos #stars #astrophysics
- Near-infrared image of Jupiter taken by the James Webb Space Telescope. In it you can see Jupiter’s auroras and rings as well as two of its moons, Amalthea and Adrastea. (NASA, ESA, CSA, Jupiter ERS Team; image processing by Ricardo Hueso and Judy Schmidt) #space #astrophysics #science
- Planetary Nebulae NGC 6578
- Globular cluster NGC 1805. The stars of this tight grouping in the Large Magellanic Cloud are 100 to 1000 times closer together than the nearest stars are to our Sun. (ESA/Hubble & NASA, J. Kalirai) #stars #galaxy #space #cosmos #science #astrophysics
- Hubble image of galaxy NGC 5548. At its center is a supermassive black hole of 65 million solar masses. #galaxy #cosmos #space #blackhole #interstellar (ESA/Hubble and NASA.Davide de Martin)
- Hubble image of a pair of merging galaxies known as NGC 4676. (NASA, Holland Ford, the ACS Science Team and ESA) #galaxy #space #cosmos #science #astrophysics
- The Hourglass Nebula, MyCn18. This Hubble image depicts the ejection of stellar matter which accompanies the death of a star. #nebula #cosmos #space #science #stars #astrophysics (Raghvendra Sahai and John Trauger, the WFPC2 science team)
- Ultraviolet image of the Crab Nebula, a supernova remnant located 6,500 light-years from Earth. #astrophysics #cosmos #nebula #interstellar #science #galaxy
- Star cluster Pismis 24 hidden in nebula NGC 6357 at bottom. Part of the nebula is ionised by the youngest and bluest stars in Pismis 24. The intense ultraviolet radiation from the these stars heats the gas surrounding the cluster and creates a bubble in the nebula. #space #cosmos #astrophysics
- Three light-years tall pillar of gas an dust known as the ‘Mystic Mountain.’ Located in the Carina nebula, infant stars buried inside it fire off jets of gas that can be seen streaming out from its peak. (M. Livio and the Hubble 20th Anniversary Team) #nebula #space #cosmos #astrophysics #stars
- IC 142, a collection of stars in the Triangulum Galaxy. These stars share a common origin, but have become gravitationally unbound and are slowly moving apart. (NASA, ESA, and M. Durbin, J. Dalcanton, and B. F. Williams, University of Washington) #cosmos #astrophysics #stars #galaxy #space
- Image of how the surface of Venus looks underneath its clouds using radar readings. Venus is around the same size and mass as the Earth. #astrophysics #space #NASA #science #universe #cosmos
- The black hole at the center of M87. This was the first black hole image ever captured, released in April 2019. (Event Horizon Telescope collaboration) #astrophysics #cosmos #space #science #interstellar #galaxy
- Jet of subatomic particles emerging from the M87 galaxy. These are produced by the supermassive black hole at its center. (NASA and the Hubble Heritage Team) #cosmos #galaxy #stars #space #interstellar
- Pillars of gas and dust in the Orion Nebula. (M. Robberto and the Hubble Space Telescope Orion Treasury Project Team) #nebula #stars #astrophysics #space #cosmos
- In this image a dark interstellar cloud in the Pleiades star cluster is being bombarded by light from an extremely bright star. As the star passes, light reflects of the nebula breaking up parts of it. (George Herbig and Theodore Simon,University of Hawaii) #astrophysics #nebula #space #stars
- Messier 16, the Eagle Nebula. The ultraviolet radiation from the bright young stars in this Hubble image illuminates the surrounding dust clouds. (ESA/Hubble & NASA) #nebula #cosmos #astrophysics #space #galaxy #interstellar
