HUBBLE engagement report
@HUBBLE_space - 924K followers on X
Measured over 7 original posts from a 30-day window, last computed on August 28, 2026.
Engagement
Early reading. We have captured 7 original posts for this account, below the 8 we require before treating a median as settled. The numbers above describe what we have seen so far, not a finished profile of the account.
A typical post picks up 912 interactions against 924K followers, an engagement rate of 0.099%. Posts are seen about 29K times each, and 3.16% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 3.12% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 0.47 posts a day over the last 30 days, though only 23% of days saw any activity at all. Most posts go out around 12:00 UTC, and Thursday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 7 posts sampled, 100% carry an image or video, 86% are part of a thread and 14% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 1.4K interactions. Only 7 original posts have been captured so far, fewer than the 8 posts we want behind a median before treating it as settled. Read the figures above as an early measurement of this account, not as a finished profile of it.

Posting timing
This account posts most often around 12:00 UTC, and Thursday is its busiest day of the week. The bars below are the catalog-wide pattern, with this account's own busiest slot marked. They do not show how this account performs at each hour: we keep one aggregate per account, not one per hour, so that measurement does not exist in our data.

Our #HubbleTopImage features the Carina Nebula! This image highlights a small portion of the nebula, one of the largest observable regions of starbirth 👶⭐ in our Milky Way galaxy. Here, we see the top of one of a pillar of gas and dust, three light-years tall. 1/2 https://t.co/3617qFwnsf

Flying through the Trifid Nebula! This video ‘floats’ through the ridges of gas and dust in this distinctive nebula, captured anew by Hubble in an image as a gift for you to mark its 36th anniversary today. 1/3 https://t.co/5IaRZYNp78

Our #HubbleTopImage features supersonic jets from young stars! The glowing streams of material seen in these Hubble images are signs of star birth. Ejected episodically by young stars, the material tears across space at more than 700,000 kilometres per hour, confined to narrow beams by stellar magnetic fields. 1/2

Our #HubbleTopImage features a star factory! ⭐🏭 This is the star cluster NGC 346, which was captured for Hubble’s 35th anniversary celebrations last year. Although several images of NGC 346 had been released previously, this view was the first to combine Hubble observations made at infrared, optical, and ultraviolet wavelengths into an intricately detailed view of the cluster. 1/2

Our #HubbleTopImage features a moth-like marvel! 🦋 This is the planetary nebula NGC 2899, which lies approximately 4,500 light-years away in the southern constellation Vela. Its diagonal outflow of gas is propelled by radiation and stellar winds from a nearly 22,000 degree Celsius white dwarf at the centre! 1/2

Happy Anniversary! 🎊 Hubble was launched #onthisday in 1990 and, every year since, it has been surprising us with its cosmic views 📸🌌 Check out the best images Hubble had to offer in its 36th year in our latest #SpaceSparks episode! 1/2 https://t.co/qK0P9Ps9v8

Our ESA/Hubble Picture of the Month features a starry spiral in a familiar neighbourhood 🏘️👋 NGC 3137 is located 53 million light-years away in the constellation Antlia (The Air Pump). It travels through space with a group of galaxies thought to be similar to the Local Group, with two large spiral galaxies and many smaller dwarf galaxies. 1/3

🆕 Hubble has turned to the Trifid Nebula for its 36th anniversary coming this 24 April. The Trifid Nebula lies about 5,000 light-years from Earth. This cloud of gas and dust somewhat resembles a marine sea lemon – a sea slug – undulating through the cosmos! 🌊 1/3 https://t.co/X7WvCyV1Vo

Our #HubbleTopImage features a celestial bauble 🪩 This sphere of gas appears to float serenely through space. Its apparent calm, however, hides an inner turmoil – it formed as a supernova’s expanding blast wave and ejected material tore through the nearby interstellar medium! 1/2

Our #HubbleTopImage features a barred spiral galaxy! NGC 5335 is categorized as a flocculent spiral galaxy, with patchy streamers of star formation across its disk. There is a striking lack of well-defined spiral arms that are commonly found among galaxies. 1/2 https://t.co/c37BuizjbF
Ranked by total interactions across everything we have tracked for this account, which is a longer history than the 30-day window the rates above use. The multiple compares each post to this account's own median.
