In this artistic rendering, light from a distant quasar passes through the halo-like circumgalactic medium of a galaxy on its way to Earth, where it is measured by Hubble's Cosmic Origins Spectrograph to determine the composition of the halo.

An artist's illustration of a neutron star emitting a radio beam from within its magnetic environment. As the radio waves travel through dense plasma within the galaxy, they split into multiple paths, causing the observed signal to flicker in brightness.

The spacecraft’s record close distance of 3.8 million miles may sound far, but on cosmic scales it’s incredibly close. If the solar system was scaled down with the distance between the Sun and Earth the length of a football field, Parker Solar Probe would be just four yards from the end zone — close enough to pass within the tenuous outer atmosphere of the Sun known as the corona.

A few hundred million years after its formation, the Moon was subject to intense volcanic activity. The distance between the Earth and the Moon was much smaller back then than it is today.

The hidden centre of galaxy NGC 1052 (artist’s impression). In this artist’s impression we are nearing the supermassive black hole at the centre of galaxy NGC 1052. Here, material collects in a spinning disk before falling into the black hole, and magnetic fields build up which may help launch the galaxy’s powerful jets.
