Dead stars may have started churning out vast amounts of gold much earlier in the universe than previously thought, a new study hints. Powerful magnetar flares may be the reason.

If dark energy is weakening, as suggested by recent results, then the cosmos is far stranger than most physicists had supposed

The school-bus-sized observatory launched on April 24, 1990 and overcame early setbacks to become one of the most scientifically productive instruments in history. From its vantage point 320 miles (515 kilometers) above Earth, the telescope has sent home more than 1.6 million observations contributing to over 21,000 scientific papers.

Over billions of years, the universe has transformed from a simpler state into an intricate cosmic web, but new research hints that the growth of cosmic structures may not have unfolded exactly as predicted.

Perched in low Earth orbit, far from the distortions of the atmosphere, Hubble has given humanity its clearest view of space — capturing everything from star births and asteroid collisions to the grand structure of distant galaxies.

We named this galaxy Zhúlóng, meaning ‘Torch Dragon’ in Chinese mythology.

Discover the amazing similarities between Zhúlóng and the Milky Way, challenging our understanding of galaxy evolution.
