A photo shared on social media authentically showed the Helix Nebula captured by NASA's Hubble Space Telescope. Rating: Fake (About this rating?) A photo allegedly showing the Helix Nebula and that was said to have been captured by NASA's Hubble Space Telescope was circulating online in late November 2024.

This shot from the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope shows a maelstrom of glowing gas and dark dust within one of the Milky Way’s satellite galaxies, the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC). This image, taken by NASA Hubble Space Telescope, is a very thin section of a supernova remnant caused by a stellar explosion that occurred more than 1,000 years ago.

The teams behind two potential new space telescopes have embarked on their final design studies as they go head-to-head to see which will be the first of NASA’s new "Probe" class of mission.

This space object is a young star known as IRAS 05506+2414 covered with thick gas and dust depicting a massive explosive event. This Hubble image captures supercluster Abell 901/902 with hundreds of galaxies. Studying the clusters helps astronomers map dark matter in space.
