One of the Hubble Space Telescope’s most famous images peered even deeper into the cosmos than scientists had thought.

That photo is the Hubble Ultra-Deep Field (HUDF), which combines hundreds of images taken by the space telescope over multiple years into the deepest view of the universe ever created. The composite pic of a small patch of sky contains a whopping 10,000 galaxies, astronomers have estimated. (The HUDF also refers to that patch of sky, not just imagery of it.)

Now, researchers have painstakingly reprocessed the iconic image, recovering lots of additional light, a new study reports. [The Most Amazing Hubble Space Telescope Discoveries!].

Saturn is losing its rings faster than previously thought. Scientists estimate the rings will be gone in 100 million years.

The NASA Sun Science probe is now preparing for its next solar flyby in April 2019: https://go.nasa.gov/2FSvd5H

The 2017 Cassini flyby allowed Earth-bound scientists to collect data to determine the weight and age of the planet’s rings.

The spacecraft captured the image when it was 4,200 miles from the object in the solar system’s distant Kuiper belt.

A team of astronomers is using double-quasars to measure the Universe’s rate of expansion. Can they finally help end the debate?
