Originally released in celebration of Hubble's 100,000th orbit in 2008, this image shows a spectacular scene of starbirth.

About 170,000 light-years away, this nebula is in the Large Magellanic Cloud, a satellite galaxy to our Milky Way: go.nasa.gov/4cMB0pM

Galactic besties 🌀

The spiral galaxy in this week's image is NGC 5996. Beneath it to the left is a smaller companion galaxy called NGC 5994.

Together, this pair is known as Arp 72. They're both about 160 million light-years from Earth: go.nasa.gov/43HJhHn

Spring cleaning? 🧹

Your dust bunnies probably aren't this big.

The opaque, dark knot of gas and dust in this view is a Bok globule – a concentration of elements that are responsible for the formation of stars throughout the universe: go.nasa.gov/3vAShBr

A field of stars ✨

This week's image features the globular star cluster NGC 1651. Globular clusters are roughly spherical groups of stars held together by their mutual gravity.

NGC 1651 is located about 162,000 light-years away: go.nasa.gov/3TYRy6x

Studying the stars 🤩

ULLYSES, the largest Hubble program ever executed, is entering a new era.

After collecting data on ~500 young stars over the span of 3 years, scientists are ready to dig in to learn more on how stars form and impact surroundings: go.nasa.gov/3ISGtNY

Stages of starbirth unfold in this view of N11B.

The stars near the left have stellar winds that blow away nearby gas, which collides with nearby dense clouds that can collapse under their own gravity and start to form new stars: go.nasa.gov/49aQG2W
