Every now and then, Hubble glimpses a common object in an interesting or unusual way. This sharply angled perspective can make it seem as if observers are craning to see over NGC3169's spiral arms into the galaxy's bright center:

The Pinwheel Galaxy (M101) holds about a trillion stars and is bigger than our own Milky Way. Find out what Hubble has learned lately about this and other galaxies in our new ebook, Hubble Focus: Galaxies through Space and Time:

The near-perfect symmetry on display here reveals the incredible complexity of galaxy NGC2985. Multiple spiral arms widen as they whirl outward from the galaxy’s bright core, slowly fading until they disappear into the emptiness of space:

25 years ago this week, fragments of the broken-up Comet Shoemaker-Levy 9 slammed into . Hubble watched the strikes, revealing giant plumes and dark impact scars as they appeared on the battered planet:

We are going forward to the Moon by 2024, but did you know that back in 2005, Dr. Jim Garvin and his team of scientists pointed the Hubble Space Telescope at our nearest celestial neighbor for a very important reason?

NGC1156 is a dwarf irregular galaxy, meaning it lacks a clear spiral or rounded shape. Some pockets of gas rotate in the opposite direction to the rest of the galaxy, suggesting there has been an encounter with another galaxy in it's past:

As if black holes weren't mysterious enough, astronomers using Hubble have found an unexpected thin disk of material furiously whirling around a supermassive black hole at the heart of spiral galaxy NGC 3147, located 130 million light-years away:

In this , the light from distant galaxies is being bent & stretched by gravity into weird arcs and shapes, including one that looks like an invading space alien. Check out Hubble pictures of this "gravitational lensing" phenomenon at:

This Hubble image shows bright, colorful pockets of star formation blooming like roses in a spiral galaxy named NGC 972. The orange-pink glow is created as hydrogen gas reacts to the intense light streaming outwards from nearby newborn stars:

Hubble captured this view of Mars between April 27 and May 6, 1999, when the Red Planet was about 54 million miles from Earth. Surface features as small as 12 miles across are visible, including craters, volcanoes, and a storm churning near the north polar ice cap.

in 1997 Hubble released this image of a 250-mile-high plume (at left) spouting from Jupiter's volcanic moon Io. Erupting from Io's Pele volcano, the gas & dust must've been blasted at over 2,000 miles per hour to form a plume that big:
