Dual nature 

These #HubbleFriday views show different aspects of the expanding shell of gas and dust surrounding the star AG Carinae.

This nebula is about five light-years wide and 10,000 years old! Learn more and try our interactive image slider: https://t.co/MiE4HtwRgc https://t.co/CmfZNiNqgS

Take a listen to the star cluster Westerlund 2 

Through the process of sonification, data from Hubble and @chandraxray is interpreted in sound!

Hubble data is played by strings and Chandra's X-ray data is represented by bells.

Congratulations to #Inspiration4 on a successful launch! There are some special “passengers” flying with the crew… 

Patches celebrating Hubble’s 30+ years of discovery!

Thanks to @Inspiration4X for bringing this symbol of exploration with you on your journey. https://t.co/MucYLRkjeW

At 400 million light-years away, this #HubbleClassic view shows off the galaxy triplet Arp 274.

Two of the galaxies are forming new stars, evident in the bright blue knots in the arms of the galaxy on the right and along the small galaxy on the left: https://t.co/pvEYrVr5SK https://t.co/AbSR3tf0So

Got any plans for 2037?

A supernova “replay” is expected to appear in about 16 years, thanks to the magnification and splitting of light caused by the gravity from an enormous galaxy cluster that lies between us and the faraway supernova:  https://t.co/a6CoKuUI2j https://t.co/5KRMldZv1W

What’s your sign? If you’re a Sagittarius, you’re in luck. 

Today’s #HubbleFriday shows a beautiful view located in the constellation Sagittarius. The star cluster NGC 6717 dazzles in this Hubble image from over 20,000 light-years away!

#StarTrekDay reminds us that Hubble gazes into the final frontier every day!

Hubble’s Frontier Fields program probed the early universe by studying large galaxy clusters, like Abell S1063, seen from four billion light-years away.

Let’s take a look 30 million light-years away 

Here's a #HubbleClassic view showing the galaxy NGC 1512’s unique core.

This 2,400 light-year-wide circle of infant star clusters is called a "circumnuclear" starburst ring. Discover more: https://t.co/zfj5CpFnKU https://t.co/FrbMZ1uPhU

Could dying stars hold the secret to looking younger? 🤔

New evidence from Hubble suggests that white dwarf stars could continue to burn hydrogen in the final stages of their lives, causing them to appear more youthful than they actually are: https://t.co/5C2Cz9LT9l https://t.co/wUai3dw8gX

May the #HubbleFriday force be with you! 🤩

But this cosmic view isn’t a lightsaber – it's a Herbig-Haro object, formed when a young star ejects jets of material that collide with nearby clouds of gas and dust.

RT @NASAWebb: 👁️ I spy with my little eye...

...a 2014 Hubble portrait of the Helix Nebula! #NASAWebb scientists will use the observatory’s Mid-Infrared Instrument to determine the mass, temperature, & composition of the dusty disk surrounding this nebula's aging central star. https://t.co/kRqLGbSJbn

 Your midweek cosmic escape 

This Hubble image shows Caldwell 87, which is a globular cluster – a spherical group of stars gravitationally bound to each other!

Caldwell 87 is 50,000 light-years away in the constellation Horologium.

 Did you know stars send out "birth announcements"? They fire off supersonic jets of glowing gas in opposite directions through space!

#OTD 10 years ago, scientists released time-lapse videos featuring Hubble observations of jets: https://t.co/zBGWwFErb9 https://t.co/h5yuBZsMqj

RT @NASAUniverse: What do #whalesharks and stars have in common? @NASAHubble has helped us track both! An algorithm written to help Hubble track stars also helps us identify the spot patterns on individual whale sharks to track them too! https://t.co/KYjL5nYMO7 #InternationalWhaleSharkDay https://t.co/GxidgdPhdn

Holmberg IX is where the young stars hang out. 

Well, by young, we mean 10 to 200 million years old. About 90% of the stars in this #HubbleClassic image are estimated to be in that range!

This galaxy is roughly 12 million light-years away! More at: https://t.co/lQkb2z7Ivs https://t.co/mUq7SgyJ2E

How many galaxies do you think are in this image?

Looks can be deceiving 

Only two galaxies and one quasar appear in the center of this #HubbleFriday view, but gravitational lensing caused the fabric of space to warp. Find out how: https://t.co/ddAYxEbPSj https://t.co/zE9iWqVqNs

RT @NASAWebb: Testing complete 

#NASAWebb has completed testing at @NorthropGrumman, demonstrating that it can survive its journey into space. Engineers are now preparing to ship Webb to its launch site of Kourou, French Guiana: https://t.co/JIbZEATn8T https://t.co/Mt5gOJxif4

Happy #NationalDogDay! 

This Hubble image captures the brightest star in our sky – the “Dog Star” Sirius! Try to find its white dwarf companion, Sirius B, in the lower left.

Sirius is 8.6 light-years away, the fifth closest star system known: https://t.co/78tM5tsNys https://t.co/fuPZw51Vtm

Spiral galaxy NGC 3982 dazzles in this #HubbleClassic view! 

The galaxy’s arms are lined with pink star-forming regions of glowing hydrogen, blue newborn star clusters, and dark dust lanes that provide the raw material for future generations of stars: https://t.co/WbBosOl4E1 https://t.co/FPVhSF7m1O

From up in space to down on Earth, careers with Hubble have always been out-of-this-world!
