Using AI image recognition, deep learning model efficiently and accurately finds structures related to star formation.

This work is based (in part) on observations made with the Spitzer Space Telescope, which is operated by the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, California Institute of Technology, under NASA contract 1407.

The Hubble is just one of NASA's orbiting "great observatories." The group also includes the Spitzer Space Telescope and the Chandra X-ray Observatory. Spitzer is an infrared orbiting telescope ...

In this image from NASA's Spitzer Space Telescope, "cometary knots" on the Helix Nebula show blue-green heads caused by excitation of their molecular material from shocks or ultraviolet radiation.

Using data from the Spitzer Space Telescope and James Webb Space Telescope, the model employs AI image recognition to efficiently and accurately detect Spitzer bubbles. They also detected shell ...
