Earth. Hubble’s sharp view is giving researchers an updated weather report on the monster planet’s turbulent atmosphere, including a remarkable new storm brewing, and a cousin of the Great Red Spot changing colour — again. The new image also features Jupiter’s icy moon Europa.</div> </div> </div> </div> </a> </div>  <div class="slide"> <a href="/web/20200928161423/https://www.spacetelescope.org/news/heic2016/"> <img draggable="false" data-lazy="https://web.archive.org/web/20200928161423/https://cdn.spacetelescope.org/archives/images/banner1920/heic2016a.jpg" alt="Hubble Sheds Light on Small-Scale Concentrations of Dark Matter (Artist’s Impression)"> <div class="pr-content"> <div class="pr-description"> <div class="pr-type">heic2016 — Science Release</div> <div class="pr-title">New Hubble Data Suggests There is an Ingredient Missing from Current Dark Matter Theories</div> <div class="pr-extra"> <div class="pr-headline">Observations by the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope and the European Southern Observatory’s Very Large Telescope (VLT) in Chile have found that something may be missing from the theories of how dark matter behaves. This missing ingredient may explain why researchers have uncovered an unexpected discrepancy between observations of the dark matter concentrations in a sample of massive galaxy clusters and theoretical computer simulations of how dark matter should be distributed in clusters. The new findings indicate that some small-scale concentrations of dark matter produce lensing effects that are 10 times stronger than expected.</div> </div> </div> </div> </a> </div>  <div class="slide"> <a href="/web/20200928161423/https://www.spacetelescope.org/news/heic2015/"> <img draggable="false" data-lazy="https://web.archive.org/web/20200928161423/https://cdn.spacetelescope.org/archives/images/banner1920/heic2015a.jpg" alt="Hubble Captures Comet NEOWISE"> <div class="pr-content"> <div class="pr-description"> <div class="pr-type">heic2015 — Photo Release</div> <div class="pr-title">Hubble Snaps Close-Up of Comet NEOWISE</div> <div class="pr-extra"> <div class="pr-headline">The NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope has captured the closest images yet of the sky’s latest visitor to make the headlines, comet C/2020 F3 NEOWISE, after it passed by the Sun.
