Mathematicians Are Making Earth-Based Telescopes Rival Space Observatories
A Bold Leap for Ground-Based Astronomy For decades, astronomers have known that Earth’s atmosphere is both a blessing and a bane. It protects life, but its ever-changing temperature, pressure, and humidity distort light as it travels to ground-based telescopes. This turbulent blanket causes stars to twinkle and galaxies to smear into blur, especially for faint…

ImageMM: Sharpening Ground-Based Images for Rubin Observatory
Introduction A new algorithm named ImageMM promises to close the gap between ground-based telescope images and space-based photos by removing the blurring effects of Earth’s atmosphere. After successful tests on the eight-meter Subaru Telescope in Hawaii, researchers are preparing to apply the technology to تصاویر from the Vera C. Rubin Observatory in Chile when it…
