Denoting the actual age of the universe by t0 (the present time), we note that x(t0) = 1. For the simple case where ΩM = 1 (and ΩV = 0), Eq. (56) yields t0=23tH∼10×109yr (less than the age of the oldest stars). For ΩV > 0, Eq. (56) implies (58)ttH=23Ω...
Multiply lensed images of a same source experience a relative time delay in the arrival of photons due to the path length difference and the different gravitational potentials the photons travel through. This effect can be used to measure absolute distances and the Hubble constant () and is known...

Hubble and Humanson were using the largest telescope in the world at the time. M31 is recognisable as the lowest black dot in the bottom left; Humanson had determined it is velocity as towards the Milky Way (the modern value is ) Full size image Surprisingly perhaps, it was not until ...
Moreover, Hubble reached an all-time high in monthly active users, demonstrating the effectiveness of the enhancements made to the platform. ## Next Steps We've made significant progress towards our vision, but there's still work to be done. Looking ahead, we have several exciting initiatives...
NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope has calibrated more than 40 “milepost markers” of space and time over the course of the last 30 years that scientists are using to measure the expansion of the universe.But the data doesn’t match with other observations from right after the big bang, and ...
Not all galaxies have the luxury of possessing a simple moniker or quirky nickname. This impressive galaxy imaged by the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope is one of the unlucky ones, and goes by a name that looks more like a password for a computer: 2XMM J
See what James Webb and Hubble are observing right now with this tool Hubble gets festive with a string of cosmic Christmas lights A new image from the Hubble Space Telescope shows a nebula in the gorgeous colors of autumn, just in time for leaf-changing season in the northern hemisphere. ...
"When forced to summarize the general theory of relativity in one sentence: Time and space and gravitation have no separate existence from matter. ... Physical objects are not in space, but these objects are spatially extended. In this way the concept 'empty space' loses its meaning. ... ...
This makes sense: even if its surface-area remains constant, the horizon is still an outgoing null surface and the interior volume keeps growing with time. Matter, so to say, has newer and newer space where to fall into. Why does matter have "newer and newer space" to fall into? And...
