Images taken by the Hubble Space Telescope document the formation of a Great Dark Spot on Neptune for the first time, report researchers in a new study. Like Jupiter’s Great Red Spot, Neptune’s Great ...
Like Earth, Uranus and Neptune have seasons, which likely drive some of the features in their atmospheres. But their seasons are much longer than on Earth, spanning decades rather than months. The new ...
A dark vortex-like storm on Neptune discovered by the Hubble Space Telescope in September 2018 has reversed course to avoid an untimely demise on the blue ice giant. The storm is 4,600 miles across -- ...
The solar system ice giants Neptune and Uranus have finally revealed their true colors — thanks to images collected by Voyager 2 three decades ago that have been polished with data from the Hubble ...
Neptune's tumultuous atmosphere gives rise to vortices similar to Jupiter's Great Red Spot, but storms on Neptune usually just last a few years. For the first time, astronomers are watching one of ...
This is a montage of NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope views of our solar system's four giant outer planets: Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune, each shown in enhanced color. The images were taken ...
Why it's so special: This iconic montage features images of Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune captured between 2014 and 2024 as part of the Hubble Space Telescope's Outer Planet Atmospheres Legacy ...
This is a montage of Hubble Space Telescope views of our solar system's four giant outer planets: Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune, each shown in enhanced color. The images were taken over nearly ...

NASA’s annual Hubble space weather survey across the solar system has yielded interesting findings on Neptune. NASA astronomers studying the treasure-trove of Hubble data have discovered a deep, ...
Using the Hubble Space Telescope, astronomers have discovered that the atmosphere of a relatively small planet outside the solar system is rich with water vapor. Don't plan a vacation to this ...
A new treatment of images collected by Voyager 2 in the late 1980s using data from the Hubble Space Telescope has revealed the actual colors of the solar system's distant ice giants, Neptune and ...
