This is an artist's impression of a supermassive black hole that is inside the dust-shrouded core of a vigorously star-forming "starburst" galaxy. It will eventually become an extremely bright quasar once the dust is gone. The research team believes that the object, discovered in a Hubble deep-sky survey, could be the evolutionary "missing link" between quasars and starburst galaxies. The dusty black hole dates back to only 750 million years after the Big Bang. (NASA, ESA, N. Bartmann/Newsflash)

Astronomers Find Rapidly Growing Black Hole From Early Universe

Astronomers have identified a rapidly-growing black hole considered a “missing link” in our knowledge of the early universe. Using data from NASA's Hubble Space Telescope, experts discovered the "monster" body that was formed just 750 million years after the Big Bang, NASA said in a statement on 13th April: “Astronomers…

NASA Tracks Earths Forest Canopy From Space

NASA has announced that it has made a near-global estimate of forest biomass and the carbon it stores, thanks to its Global Ecosystem Dynamics Investigation (GEDI). Until now, scientists had faced a significant gap in data on climate change by not having this information to hand. With the data produced…

Researchers were able to directly image newly forming exoplanet AB Aurigae b over a 13-year span using Hubble’s Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph (STIS) and its Near Infrared Camera and Multi-Object Spectrograph (NICMOS). In the top right, Hubble’s NICMOS image captured in 2007 shows AB Aurigae b in a due south position compared to its host star, which is covered by the instrument’s coronagraph. The image captured in 2021 by STIS shows the protoplanet has moved in a counterclockwise motion over time. (NASA, ESA, Thayne Currie (Subaru Telescope, Eureka Scientific Inc./Newsflash)

Hubble Finds Planet Almost 12,000 Times Bigger Than Earth Slowly Forming

A massive new planet, nine times the size of Jupiter, is being formed in an intense and violent process, as recorded by NASA’s Hubble space telescope, challenging understandings about planetary formation. Called AB Aurigae b, the planet is embedded in a disc of gas and dust spiraling around a young…
