30 years ago, the Hubble Space Telescope unlocked a window on the universe. Through that window we’ve seen the wonders of our Milky Way and expanded our vision across the galaxy. From the birth and death of stars to the baby pictures of planets, these are some of Hubble’s Milky Way marvels. This video can be freely shared and downloaded at https://svs.gsfc.nasa.gov/13603.

Explore KELT-9 b, one of the hottest planets known. Observations from NASA's Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) have revealed new details about the planet’s environment. The planet follows a close, polar orbit around a squashed star with different surface temperatures, factors that make peculiar seasons for KELT-9 b.

Celebrating 30 years in orbit, The Hubble Space Telescope has revealed astonishing secrets about our universe. Yet, while its most famous pictures may reveal galaxies and nebulas across the cosmos, it’s also unlocked secrets here in our own solar system.

In 2017, NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope captured an image of a huge wing-shaped shadow cast by a fledgling star’s unseen, planet-forming disk. The young star, called HBC 672, is casting the shadow across a more distant cloud in a star-forming region—like a fly wandering into the beam of a flashlight shining on a wall. Now, after observing the shadow again, astronomers report that they see the giant shadow flapping its "wings"! This video can be freely shared and downloaded at https://svs.gsfc.nasa.gov/13638.
