Webb’s Exoplanet Observations Demonstrate Telescope's Strengths
WASHINGTON, D.C., Sept. 12, 2022 — NASA’s James Webb Telescope has captured the first clear evidence for carbon dioxide in the atmosphere of a planet outside out solar system, shortly after taking its first image of an exoplanet. The observations made with the powerful infrared telescope are not only providing insight into the formation and composition of planetary objects, but also prove the advantages of space telescopes outside the Earth’s orbit. WASP-39 b, the planet upon which Webb discovered carbon
NASA Reveals First Exoplanet Images Taken by Webb Telescope
WASHINGTON, D.C., Sept. 6, 2022 — Astronomers have used NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope to take a direct image of a planet outside our solar system. The image, shown through four different light filters, demonstrates how the telescope’s infrared capabilities can lead...
Habitable Exoplanets to Be Studied with Help of AI and Photonics
SYDNEY, Oct. 23, 2020 — Researchers from the University of Sydney developed a sensor capable of correcting the distortion of starlight caused by heat variations in Earth’s atmosphere. The sensor would allow ground-based telescopes to study habitable exoplanets. The...
ESA Declares CHEOPS Space Telescope Ready for Operation
BERN, Switzerland, April 20, 2020 — The CHEOPS space telescope was declared ready for space exploration by the European Space Agency (ESA) late last month and has begun collecting observations of known exoplanet-hosting stars. The telescope is a joint mission between the ESA and...
Camera Can Differentiate Between Exoplanet Light and Nearby Starlight
SANTA BARBARA, Calif., May 2, 2018 — A new superconducting camera will be used in the search for exoplanets that could contain or support life. Distinguishing the light of a planet from the light of the star it orbits is a challenge, which the camera’s high-contrast imaging...
Optical Physicist Wins ‘Genius Grant’
TUCSON, Ariz., Oct. 2, 2012 — A physicist who developed a breakthrough imaging technique for finding Earth-like planets outside our solar system is among 23 new MacArthur Fellows for 2012. As with all the other winners, University of Arizona astronomer and optical physicist...
Faster repetition gives comb teeth you can see
KONSTANZ, Germany – Frequency combs have been the basis for a Nobel Prize, but their “teeth” have never been visible – until now. Thanks to recent advances in laser technology, researchers at the University of Konstanz and the US National Institute of Standards &...
