The Hubble Space Telescope images the cosmos from low Earth orbit, but an abundance of artificial satellites circle the planet at higher altitudes.

Satellite trails plague astronomy observations, but Hubble Space Telescope scientists figured out a way to reduce the impacts on HST images.

A new technique could aid Hubble Space Telescope users, but the problem will get worse for observatories on Earth.

Astronomers at STScI in Baltimore have developed new software tools to reduce the adverse impact of satellites on images captured by Hubble.

A clear sky is a prerequisite for most astronomers imaging the cosmos. However, with the proliferation of satellite trails, astronomers see a lot more streaks in their images. Thats particularly true for people using professional ground-based and orbiting telescopes. When Hubble Space Telescope opened its eye on the sky, there were less than 500 satellites orbiting our planet. Now, there are nearly 8,000 of them, leaving their mark across the sky.

Astronomers worry about how satellites could impact scientific research. Now, researchers have created a tool to deal with satellite streaks in Hubble images.

Scientists have developed a new tool that can keep Hubble Space Telescope photos free of the bright streaks caused by fast-moving satellites.

Baltimore MD (SPX) Jun 06, 2023 - When the Hubble Space Telescope was launched in 1990, there were about 470 artificial satellites orbiting Earth. By 2000, that number doubled. But by 2023, the rising number has grown almost exponen

Intermediate black holes are almost certain to exist, but they're tough to spot. The Hubble might have helped find another one.

NASA's Hubble Space Telescope captured star-studded cluster to search for a hidden monster. In their quest for cosmic mysteries, astronomers have set their sights on a captivating celestial cluster as NASA's Hubble Space Telescope unveils the star-studded spectacle of NGC 6325.
