Hubble Space Telescope

Eos, Transactions American Geophysical Union, 1983
The Space Telescope, scheduled for launch aboard the Space Shuttle in 1986, has been renamed the Edwin P. Hubble Space Telescope, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) announced. The orbiting optical astronomical observatory will carry a 2.4‐m mirror and five scientific instruments that will be able to look into space 7 times farther

Beyond the Hubble Space Telescope [PDF]

Nature, 1996
NASA needs to develop a new generation of space observatories embracing the theme of 'cosmic origins' if it is to maintain its lead in the exploration of space.

Differentiating Plumes and Local Torus Segments of Enceladus

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Enceladus's south polar plumes and their surrounding torus segments (local plasma regions formed by plume material diffusion) are key to understanding its magnetospheric interaction; however, clear observational criteria to distinguish them remain lacking.

Resolving Red Giant Winds with the Hubble Space Telescope

The Astrophysical Journal
We describe recent spectroscopic observations of red giant stars made by the Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph (STIS) instrument on board the Hubble Space Telescope, which has provided spatially resolved observations of the warm chromospheric winds ...

The cosmological ultra-low frequency radio background: a solution to the Hubble tension and the 21-cm excess trough

European Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields, 2023
Recent observations of the Cosmic Microwave Background and the Hubble Space Telescope obtain two different values of the Hubble constant with a discrepancy of at least $$4.4 \sigma $$ 4.4 σ , which is now known as the Hubble tension.

Ozone Production by Electron Irradiation of Regolith Ice: Laboratory Study for the Icy Moons

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract We irradiate fine‐grained regolith pure water ice in ultra high vacuum with 5keV $5\,\text{keV}$ and 10keV $10\,\text{keV}$ electrons to study the radiolysis of water ice. The ice regolith is designed to closely mimic the physical characteristics of the surfaces of the icy moons of the Solar System.

Hubble Space Telescope Observations of the Interstellar Interloper 3I/ATLAS

The Astrophysical Journal Letters
We present high-angular-resolution observations of the third known interstellar interloper, 3I/ATLAS, from the Hubble Space Telescope. The object is clearly active at 3.8 au preperihelion, showing dust emitted from the hot, Sun-facing side of the nucleus

The High Plasma Density Observed Along the PJ57 Juno Flyby of Io Implies the Presence of a Dense Atomic Corona

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract On December 2023, the Juno spacecraft made a flyby of Io above the northern hemisphere at a closest approach (CA) altitude of ∼1,500 km (PJ57). The Juno/Waves and Radio‐occultation measurements showed a surprising large electron density ∼28,000 cm−3 near closest approach.

Structure of Jupiter's High‐Latitude Storms: Folded Filamentary Regions Revealed by Juno

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract Sprawling, turbulent cloud formations dominate the meteorology of Jupiter's mid‐to‐high latitudes, known as Folded Filamentary Regions (FFRs). A multi‐wavelength characterization by Juno reveals the spatial distribution, vertical structure, and energetics of the FFRs.

Massive Star Formation in the Ultraviolet Observed with the Hubble Space Telescope

Galaxies, 2020
Spectroscopic observations of a massive star formation in the ultraviolet and their interpretation are reviewed. After a brief historical retrospective, two well-studied resolved star clusters and the surrounding H II regions are introduced: NGC 2070 in ...
