The Hubble Space Telescope has observed the possible birthplace of the most distant fast radio burst ever observed.

The fast radio burst originated from a group of at least seven galaxies that existed when the universe was five billion years old.

Galaxy AM 1054-325 has a distorted shape due to its close encounter with another galaxy.

The tidal tail of the galaxy is where new stars are forming due to the interactions between galaxies.

Stars come in various sizes and ages, with some being significantly younger and more massive than the Sun.

Hubble Space Telescope plays a crucial role in capturing images of young, massive stars hidden behind stardust clouds.

NASA's Hubble Space Telescope has captured an image of two massive galaxies colliding with each other.

This collision, known as 'Arp 122,' could eventually form a singular structure of dust, gas, and dark matter in hundreds of millions of years.
