Great Observatories program

Scientists on Nov. 7 unveiled the first pictures taken by the European space telescope Euclid, a shimmering and stunning collection of galaxies too numerous to count.

The photos were revealed by the European Space Agency, four months after the telescope launched from Cape Canaveral.

The world's newest and biggest space telescope is showing Jupiter as never before, auroras and all.

Scientists released the shots on Aug. 22 of the solar system's biggest planet.

It was found by Hubble and connects two rare celestial bodies 

Scientists on April 24 celebrated the Hubble Space Telescope's 30th anniversary with a new image of a satellite galaxy of the Milky Way.

In a statement, U.S. space agency NASA said the galaxy in the image - located 163,000 light-years away- away from Earth- and included the giant red nebula NGC 2014, as well as its smaller blue neighbor NGC 2020.

A unique discovery brings us closer to the space age.  Scientists have detected water vapor in the atmosphere of a distant planet.  The discovery marks a new stage in the search for signs of life beyond the solar system.

The Hubble Space Telescope has captured our cosmos at its most colorful.
