4 days ago · This image from NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope, released on Feb. 4, 2025, shows the gargantuan galaxy LEDA 1313424, aptly nicknamed the Bullseye.A far smaller blue dwarf galaxy went through the Bullseye’s center, leaving nine star-filled rings. Astronomers using Hubble identified eight visible rings, more than previously detected by any telescope in any galaxy, and confirmed a ninth using ...

7 hours ago · LEDA 1313424, aptly nicknamed the Bullseye, is two and a half times the size of our Milky Way and has nine rings — six more than any other known galaxy. High-resolution imagery from NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope confirmed eight rings, and data from the W. M. Keck Observatory in Hawaii confirmed a ninth.

4 days ago · NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope has captured a cosmic bullseye! The gargantuan galaxy LEDA 1313424 is rippling with nine star-filled rings after an “arrow” — a far smaller blue dwarf galaxy — shot through its heart.

4 days ago · Both the Hubble Space Telescope and the W. M. Keck Observatory in Hawaii proved that the Bullseye galaxy has nine rings — six more than any other known galaxy. Plus, Hubble identified which galaxy dropped through the Bullseye’s core: The blue dwarf galaxy that now “sits” directly to its left. ... NASA's Hubble Space Telescope has ...

4 days ago · NASA's Hubble Space Telescope managed to capture an incredible image of a galaxy that looks an awful lot like a bullseye. "This was a serendipitous discovery," said Imad Pasha, the lead...

1 day ago · Scientists using the Hubble Space Telescope investigated a goliath galaxy, LEDA 1313424. Nicknamed the “Bullseye,” this galaxy features nine rings, many more than any other known galaxy.

2 days ago · Hubble's successor, NASA's Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope, is scheduled to launch in May 2027. With a field of view 100 times larger than Hubble's, it promises to capture light from millions ...

4 days ago · This illustration shows the massive galaxy nicknamed the Bullseye face-on. Dotted circles indicate where each of its rings are, which formed like ripples in a pond after a blue dwarf galaxy (not shown) shot through its core about 50 million years ago. ... NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope helped researchers carefully pinpoint the location of most ...
