RT @NASAUniverse: Ring galaxies may look like dazzling jewelry, but they’re anything but that! Scientists think they may be a product of enormous collisions where a smaller and a larger galaxy meet at just the right angle. Read more: https://t.co/9CqtYdzJWf #GalaxiesGalore https://t.co/bu9ft88VBr

Welcome to NGC 1023, about 36 million light-years away!

In this new #GalaxiesGalore image, explore one of the nearest lenticular galaxies to Earth. Lenticular galaxies get their names from their edge-on appearance that resembles a lens.

Hubble has calibrated ~40 “milepost markers” to better measure the expansion rate of our universe!
 
But there’s a discrepancy between the rate in our local universe compared to observations from right after the big bang, suggesting some weird physics: https://t.co/QgPZx9AHLw https://t.co/srgBhQG0iv

Talk about #GalaxiesGalore!

This sonification of the 2014 Hubble Ultra Deep Field plays a single note for each galaxy in the image. The later the note plays in this musical piece, the farther away the galaxy is!

This new Hubble #GalaxiesGalore image captures the central region of the gigantic elliptical galaxy NGC 474.

Located ~100 million light-years from Earth, NGC 474 spans 250,000 light-years across – that’s 2.5 times larger than our own Milky Way Galaxy: https://t.co/0nwpChOPI9 https://t.co/beRVpKQKvr

The last time we heard from @NASA’s Curious Universe, they were sharing stories about our friend @NASAWebb!

One Webby later, they’re back with a new season of stories to tell from all around the universe. Tune in every Tuesday starting May 24: https://t.co/qREcbwdTG9 https://t.co/SHocLc7CKj

There are #GalaxiesGalore in Hickson Compact Group 31! 

At about 166 million light-years away, four dwarf galaxies are seen interacting in this image.

The bright object in the center is a star that's between Earth and HCG 31. Find out more: https://t.co/BD6Pslt2e9 https://t.co/t8Nay94SQk

RT @NASAhistory: We love looking back in time, but telescopes take it to a new level!

The 2004 Hubble Ultra Deep Field shows about 10,000 galaxies. Because of the time it took for their light to reach us, we see some of the #GalaxiesGalore as they were just 500 million years after the Big Bang. https://t.co/IPoYcaxtFB

Welcome to one of the most active galaxies in our cosmic neighborhood, NGC 1569!

Scientists represented data in this Hubble image with sound to create a sonification with a bottom to top scan. Brighter light is higher pitched & louder: https://t.co/9C3Xgvkif0

RT @NASAhistory: #HappyBirthday to NASA’s first chief of astronomy, Dr. Nancy Grace Roman (1925–2018). She created NASA's space astronomy program and is known to many as the "Mother of Hubble" for her role in making @NASAHubble a reality.

About 130 million light-years away in the constellation Draco, the galaxy NGC 3147 resides.

Its winding, graceful spiral arms contain pinkish nebulae, young blue stars, and dust in silhouette.

Get ready for the lunar eclipse on May 15-16! 

A lunar eclipse occurs when the Sun, Earth, and Moon align so that the Moon passes into Earth’s shadow.

How to watch: https://t.co/eJkZLgSj9K

Fun fact: Hubble has observed the Moon before, like this image of Tycho Crater! https://t.co/D3SUFFEOmX

What better way to wrap up the first week of #GalaxiesGalore than with a new Hubble image? 

Soak in this view of the giant elliptical galaxy UGC 10143, the brightest galaxy in a cluster full of them.

Hats off to you, Little Sombrero Galaxy!

Also known as NGC 7814, this beautiful galaxy shines in a new view from Hubble. Roughly 40 million light-years away and 80,000 light-years-wide, this galaxy is billions of years old.

Galaxies are pretty to look at, but they can also be pretty to listen to – and scientifically valuable!
