The Hubble Telescope has spotted an unusual spiral galaxy – 76 million light-years away – that resembles an eye ...

Adaptive Optics (AO) systems enhance telescopes' imaging capabilities by compensating for these aberrations in real time. This paper presents the design and laboratory prototyping of a high-order AO ...

They did this by scouring the archives of other telescopes and with new observations from two powerful ground-based observatories. Observations from Hubble backed by data from the Atacama Large ...

In this study, we introduce Adaptive Optics to confocal Raman microscopy for the first time to counteract such aberrations, significantly increasing the Raman signal and image quality. The method is ...

Want to see Mars at its brightest in January? The best telescopes for seeing planets give you the clearest views of our celestial neighbors. The new year is a great time to test out your ...

“With two NASA flagship telescopes now confirming each other’s findings, we must take this [Hubble tension] problem very seriously—it’s a challenge but also an incredible opportunity to learn more ...

Astronomers can't agree how fast our cosmos is expanding. A new James Webb Space Telescope study has made the crisis even worse. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an ...
