2 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 ...

2 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.

2 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 researcher ...

2 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 ...

15 hours ago · Not far from the larger galaxy is a smaller one, seen in visible light images using the Hubble Space Telescope. Observations taken using the Keck Cosmic Web Imager (KCWI), which is optimized for visible blue wavelengths, revealed that this smaller galaxy is not only close to Bullseye, at a distance of just 130,000 kilometers (about 80,000 miles), but linked.

20 hours ago · NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope detected eight of those rings, and data from the W. M. Keck Observatory in Hawaii confirmed a ninth. The team also suspects the collision might have formed a bygone ...

1 day ago · The Hubble Space Telescope just imaged a massive bullseye in space: LEDA 1313424, or the Bullseye Galaxy, which is about 2.5 times the size of the Milky Way. Despite the galaxy’s size, capturing ...

1 day ago · The Hubble Space Telescope has imaged a stunning and unusual galaxy with nine rings around it. ... LEDA 1313424, aptly nicknamed the Bullseye, is two and a half times the size of our Milky Way and ...

2 days 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.
