You're looking at the home of 40 billion stars! 🌟
Messier 95 is a barred spiral galaxy about 33 million light-years away, with glowing arms full of star birth activity: go.nasa.gov/4uxYDLp
Welcome to Hubble's Messier Marathon: 2026 Edition! We're sharing new Hubble images of cosmic objects from the Messier catalog, compiled by French astronomer Charles Messier in the 1700s. Come back tomorrow for another new image, and catch up here ⬇️

40 billion stars… and we're only just beginning to understand the universe.
Its bright arms aren't just beautiful…
they are active star factories, reminding us that the universe is constantly being created.
Looking at the cosmos is looking at the past… and also at our origin.

Hubble's new image of Messier 95 shows a barred spiral galaxy in the constellation Leo, located 33 million light-years away and home to about 40 billion stars.
The glowing arms are full of active star formation, driven by the central bar that funnels gas inward to fuel the process.
This launches Hubble's 2026 Messier Marathon perfectly.
These 5 myths stop SMBs, logistics, and ops teams from scaling in 2025. If your team still depends on spreadsheets you are slowing down growth.

@NASAHubble Anyone..?
...How far from the center, if possible, does any locality have to be for being supportive of life.
(hmm, galaxy hopper mike....liken' thought/s of that)
@NASAHubble@Sharad_naik Wow, that’s breathtaking! 🌌 Just imagining 40 billion stars swirling in Messier 95’s spiral arms really puts the scale of our universe into perspective. Each glowing arm is like a cosmic nursery, where new stars are being born. Truly awe-inspiring! ✨
@NASAHubble A barred spiral galaxy 33 million light-years away full of star birth activity and Hubble makes it look like something you could reach out and touch.
@NASAHubble Just imagine 40 billion stars, each with its own story, all swirling together in Messier 95.Moments like this make you pause and remember how small we are, yet how connected we are to the universe around us. Space has a way of humbling and inspiring all at once.
@NASAHubble Hey Hubble how did ya do today ? Did ya tell the American citizens in Ohio about that meteor that landed into OH? Wtf do u do 4real 😐 admit your a fraud. Or a liar and have no idea what goes on or admit the gov. Told ya not to say a word bcz they thought it was going 2 b worse!
