Hubble Finds New Evidence for Intermediate-Mass Black Hole in Omega Centauri - YouTube - NASA Goddard - astrophysics
Intermdiate-mass black holes are a long sought missing link in black hole evolution.They are smaller than supermassive black holes,but larger than stellar mass black holes,formed by the collapse of massive stars.Only a few candidates have been found to date.*A team astronomers analyzed over 500 images from 20 years of NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope observations to find evidence of an intermediate-range blsck hole by tracking seven fast-moving starsin Omega Centauri.The Omega Cantauri globular cluster is in the constellarion Centaurus at a distabce of 17,090 light years from Earth.It is the largest-known globular cluster in our Milky Way galaxy at a diameter of about 150 light years.*Text by NASA/Goddard and edited by Andrew Taylor

Pillars of Creation Star in New Visualization from the NASA/ESA Hubble and the NASA/ESA/CSA Webb Space Telescopes - YouTube
Made famous in 1995 by the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope,the Pillars of Creation in the heart of the Eagle Nebula have captured imaginations everywhere with their haunting,ethereal beauty.Now,NASA has released a new 3D visualization of these towering celestial structures using data from the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope and the NASA/ESA/CSA James Webb Space Telescope.This is the most comprehensive amd detailed multiwavelength movie yet of this star-birthing region based on observational data from a science paper led by Anna Macleod,as associate professor at the University of Durham,United Kingdom.Macleod also served as a science advisor on the project.*Text by NASA and edited by Andrew Taylor*

NASA Hubble Operations Update - YouTube - astrophysics/planetary science - audio only
The NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope has been a highly valued source of astrophysics and planetary science data and is expected to continue as such until at least the mid-2030s.It has studied galactic evolution,exoplanet atmospheres and space weather on the planets.A commercial reboost/servicing mission is under study.
Participants in the teleconference include:Mark Clampin,director,Astrophysics Division,Science Mission Directorate at NASA Headquarters in Washington;Patrick Crouse,project manager,Hubble Space Telescope,NASA Goddard Spaceflight Center,Greenbelt,Maryland.*Space weather includes meterological phenomena such as storms,ice formations and seasonal change;aurorae and volcanoes.Ice formations can be evidence of subsurface oceans.
