2003 (continued)

• 9/4/2003 STScI-2003-24 61. Celestial Composition Amid a backdrop of far-off galaxies, the majestic dusty spiral NGC 3370 looms in the foreground in this NASA Hubble Space Telescope image. Recent observations taken with the Advanced... (More)
• 5/7/2003 STScI-2003-15 62. Deepest View of Space Yields Young Stars in Andromeda Halo Relying on the deepest visible-light images ever taken in space, astronomers using NASA's Hubble Space Telescope (HST) have reliably measured... (More)
• 5/1/2003 STScI-2003-14 63. Freewheeling Galaxies Collide in a Blaze of Star Birth A dusty spiral galaxy appears to be rotating on edge, like a pinwheel, as it slides through the larger, bright galaxy NGC 1275, in this NASA Hubble Space Telescope... (More)
• 3/6/2003 STScI-2003-07 64. Hubble Resolves a Blaze of Stars in a Galaxy's Core The central region of the small galaxy NGC 1705 blazes with the light of thousands of young and old stars in... (More)
• 1/9/2003 STScI-2003-03 65. Hubble Probes the Heart of a Nearby Quasar The Hubble Space Telescope's new Advanced Camera for Surveys (ACS) has provided the clearest view yet in visible light of the nearby quasar, 3C 273 [image at right]. (More)
• 1/8/2003 STScI-2003-04 66. Giant Radio Jet Coming from Wrong Kind of Galaxy These are composite images of the galaxy 0313-192, the first spiral galaxy known to be producing a giant radio-emitting jet. The image at left represents... (More)
• 1/7/2003 STScI-2003-01 67. Biggest 'Zoom Lens' in Space Takes Hubble Deeper into the Universe The Advanced Camera for Surveys (ACS) aboard NASA's Hubble Space Telescope has used a natural "zoom lens" in space to boost its view of the distant... (More)

2002

• 12/19/2002 STScI-2002-16 68. A Tiny Galaxy is Born New detailed images from NASA's Hubble Space Telescope show a "late-blooming" galaxy, a small, distorted system of gas and stars that still appears to be in the process of development... (More)
• 12/12/2002 STScI-2002-22 69. Hubble Watches Galaxies Engage in Dance of Destruction NASA's Hubble Space Telescope is witnessing a grouping of galaxies engaging in a slow dance of destruction that will last for billions of years. The galaxies... (More)
• 12/5/2002 STScI-2002-29 70. Hubble Photographs 'Double Bubble' in Neighboring Galaxy A unique peanut-shaped cocoon of dust, called a reflection nebula, surrounds a cluster of young, hot stars in this view from NASA's Hubble Space Telescope. The "double bubble,"... (More)
