We can't hear the sound of stars with our ears, but they are actually performing a concert even at this moment! However, now you can hear the sound of one of the most stunning stars. It is RS Puppis, a Cepheid variable star which is around 200 times larger than our Sun and covered with dust reflecting starlight. NASA says that located about 6,500 light-years away, this star rhythmically brightens and dims over a six-week cycle.How do scientists record the sound of a starThis star got the data sonification treatment by…

NASA's Hubble Space Telescope snapped an amazing image of Orion Nebula with the help of two of its special instruments. NASA's Hubble Space Telescope has been in orbit since 1990. It has been in service for more than 32 years and since then it has delivered some spectacular views of space, star formations, nebulae, galaxies, exoplanets, and much more. The latest breathtaking image captured by the Hubble Space Telescope shows a stunning view of the bright variable star V 372 Orionis. It also captured a smaller companion…

NASA's Astronomy Picture of the Day is an enchanting snapshot of Lynds' Dark Nebula captured by astrophotographer Joshua Carter. Nebulas exist in the space between stars, known as the Interstellar space. In fact, there is a Nebula close to Earth which could possibly be the remnant of the dying star, according to NASA. It is called the Helix Nebula and is located approximately 700 light-years away from Earth. NASA captures the Nebulas with the help of its Spitzer Space Telescope, Hubble Space Telescope and the new James…

NASA’s Astronomy Picture of the Day is a stunning snapshot of two galaxies colliding almost 400 million light-years away from Earth. NASA Astronomy Picture of the Day 23 January 2023: Galaxies are large collections of stars, gas, dust, and dark matter held together by gravity. They come in a variety of sizes, from small dwarf galaxies with only a few billion stars to giant elliptical galaxies with trillions of stars. Although most galaxies have elliptical shapes, a few have unusual shapes like toothpicks or rings. Most…

The final moments of a star before being destroyed by a black hole have been recorded by the Hubble Space Telescope. A black hole is a place in space where the pull of gravity is so strong that nothing, including light, can escape. It is an extremely dense region of space formed by collapse of a giant star at the end of its life cycle. A supermassive Black Hole forms due to merging of black holes. The biggest black hole is a Supermassive black hole which resides in the center of galaxies and is capable of engulfing…

NASA’s Astronomy Picture of the Day is a captivating image of a galaxy cluster captured by the James Webb Telescope. The James Webb Space Telescope is impressing us with its capabilities with each passing day. NASA's $10 billion space telescope has been capturing breathtaking images of far-off galaxies, star clusters, black holes and more. The space telescope was launched on December 25, 2021 and since then it has added many feathers in its cap. One such image was of Galaxy clusters, which are some of the largest…

The new study by NASA revealed the secret behind the Butterfly Nebula wings. Notably, most nebulae have circular shapes, but this one is different. NASA has shocked and awed the public with astonishing images take of objects found in deep space. Whether these images were of stars, planets, Sun, galaxies, asteroids, comets and other celestial objects, they have been simply breathtaking. Now, NASA has shared an astonishing image of a unique Nebula known as NGC 6302, which looks like the wings of a Butterfly. Yes, you…

By getting to know our neighbours out in space, astronomers can determine what types of stars reside in various nearby galaxies and Hubble Space Telescope is helping map out the local structure of the Universe. Recently NASA has released an image of galaxy LEDA 48062 in the constellation Perseus by the Hubble Space Telescope. In the Image, LEDA 48062 is the faint, sparse, amorphous galaxy on the right side of the image, and it is accompanied by a more sharply defined neighbor on the left, the large, disc-like…

NASA’s Astronomy Picture of the Day for 15 January, 2023 is one of a spooky Crab Nebula image captured by the Hubble Telescope. NASA Astronomy picture of the day takes everyone into a fascinatingly different dimension of the cosmos on a daily basis. Today, it took an eerie turn with a an image of a Crab Nebula! “This is the mess that is left when a star explodes. The Crab Nebula, the result of a supernova seen in 1054 AD, is filled with mysterious filaments,” NASA explained about the images. The filaments in the image…

NASA's Hubble Space Telescope has found a black hole which has twisted a captive star into a terrifying Donut shape. Here is all you need to know. Black holes swallow everything, even light! According to NASA, a black hole is an astronomical object with a gravitational pull so strong that nothing, not even light, can escape it. It pulls everything within its reach into its bottomless abyss. As per the latest information provided by NASA, the Hubble Space Telescope has found a black hole which twisted a star into a…
