James Webb Telescope uncovers hidden, dust-packed red galaxies—Ultra-red Flattened Objects—challenging past theories and ...

The two keys to Edwin Hubble's breakthrough discovery were forged by others in the 1910s. The first key, the period-luminosity scale discovered by Henrietta Leavitt, allowed astronomers to ...

The Hubble constant is one of the most important numbers in cosmology because it tells us how fast the universe is expanding, which can be used to determine the age of the universe and its history. It ...

Tomorrow, April 24, marks the 34th anniversary of the launch of the Hubble Space Telescope. For more than three decades, this venerable old telescope has been peering out into space, observing ...

Edwin Powell Hubble is renowned for determining that there are other galaxies in the Universe beyond the Milky Way, and for observing that the universe is expanding at a constant rate. Hubble was ...
