A Circumstellar Disk Around β Pictoris
A circumstellar disk has been observed optically around the fourth-magnitude star β Pictoris. First detected in the infrared by the Infrared Astronomy Satellite last year, the disk is seen to extend…

NICMOS Imaging of the HR 4796A Circumstellar Disk
We report the first near-infrared (NIR) imaging of a circumstellar annular disk around the young (~8 Myr), Vega-like star HR 4796A. NICMOS coronagraph observations at 1.1 and 1.6 μm reveal a ringlike…

Encounter with saturn: voyager 1 imaging science results.
TLDR
As Voyager 1 flew through the Saturn system it returned photographs revealing many new and surprising characteristics of this complicated community of bodies, including small inner satellites that interact gravitationally with one another and with the ring particles in ways not observed elsewhere in the solar system.

A Candidate Substellar Companion to HR 7329
We present the discovery of a candidate substellar companion from a survey of nearby young stars made with the Near-Infrared Camera and Multiobject Spectrometer coronagraph on the Hubble Space…

A New Look at the Saturn System: The Voyager 2 Images
TLDR
Within Saturn's rings, the "birth" of a spoke has been observed, and surprising azimuthal and time variability is found in the ringlet structure of the outer B ring, leading to speculations about Saturn's internal structure and about the collisional and thermal history of the rings and satellites.

The Environment of Lyman- alpha Absorbers in the Sight Line toward 3C 273
We present new ground-based data following up on the Hubble Space Telescope discovery of low-redshift Lya absorption in the sight line to the quasar 3C 273. Our goal is to investigate the…

Voyager 2 in the Uranian System: Imaging Science Results
TLDR
Voyager 2 images of the southern hemisphere of Uranus indicate that submicrometersize haze particles and particles of a methane condensation cloud produce faint patterns in the atmosphere, and Voyager images confirm the extremely low albedo of the ring particles.

Hubble Space Telescope NICMOS Spectroscopy of Charon's Leading and Trailing Hemispheres
We used the near-infrared camera and multiobject spectrometer NICMOS on the Hubble Space Telescope to obtain 1.1–2.4 μm, low-resolution (R ~ 200) slitless grism spectrophotometry of the individual…
