We're still in the definition phase of the Habitable Worlds Observatory (HWO), but it seems like every week a new research ...

JWST lacks the precision to detect life on exoplanets, and this new telescope aims to change that.

Researchers have developed a new technology that can shape the spectrum of light emitted from a laser frequency comb across the visible and near-infrared wavelengths with more precision than ...

Researchers have developed a new smaller, lighter design for space-based imaging spectrometers with high spectral resolution. These high-dispersion imaging spectrometers could be used onboard ...

The Gemini South telescope’s newest science instrument — GHOST, the Gemini High-resolution Optical SpecTrograph — achieved first light by making exquisite observations of HD 222925, a remarkably ...

The Nature Index 2026 Research Leaders reveal the leading institutions and countries/territories in the natural sciences, health sciences, applied sciences and social sciences, according to their ...

Researchers developed a new type of spectral shaper that can shape the spectrum of 10,000 lines of light from a laser frequency comb. The image shows the spatial light modulator they used with a 2D ...
