This NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope image features the spiral galaxy IC 3225.

A spiral galaxy with a disk that glows visibly from the center. It has faint dust threaded through it. A spiral arm curves around the left edge of the disk and is noticeably denser with bright blue spots that hold hot and new stars. On the opposite side, the disk stretches out into a short tail where it covers a distant background galaxy. Other distant galaxies and some nearby stars are visible are also visible in this image.

A four-panel image. The top two panels are diagrams of Uranus – spheres with gridlines going longitudinally and latitudinally. On the top left, the view from Hubble, the southern pole of the planet faces 3 o’clock. On the top right, the view from New Horizons, the southern pole faces 10 o’clock. The bottom left panel is Hubble’s actual view of Uranus – the planet is a light blue sphere, with a white circle covering the right half of the planet (the southern pole). The bottom right panel is the actual view of Uranus from New Horizons. The planet appears as a tiny whiteish dot.

The top box shows galaxy cluster Abell 370 with a callout box indicating the area where the lensed supernova images were found. The bottom box shows an expanded version of the callout box flanked by Hubble on the left and a galaxy on the right. Light path lines between the two, intersecting the image, show how the light from the supernova in the galaxy was split and bent by the gravitational lens.

Left half of the image is the entire NGC 2174 nebula. A white square indicates the location of the Hubble infrared image at right. The nebula appears like an oval cloud ringed by rusty-brown gas and filled with glowing blue gas dotted with stars. Right half: Right half of the image: Infrared light shows a rusty-brown dust cloud dotted with a few bright stars. Hazy pillars of gas and dust rise up toward the right. A bluish-white glow fills the lower-right quadrant. The haze is more transparent as you move toward the upper right corner. Background is dotted with stars.

Left half of the image: Visible light shows a black to rusty-brown cloud outlined by illuminated, golden clouds. The nebula is sent against a glowing blue cloud dotted with stars. Right half of the image: Infrared light shows a dust cloud dotted with a few bright stars. Hazy pillars of gas and dust rise up toward the right. A bluish-white glow fills the lower-right quadrant. The haze is more transparent as you move toward the upper right corner. Background is dotted with stars.
