**Cosmic Fast Bursts**

January 28, 2025

The first trial of an Australian-developed technology has detected mysterious objects by sifting through signals from space like sand on a beach.

“That’s the equivalent of sifting through a whole beach of sand to look for a single five-cent coin every minute,”

“We’re also detecting long-period transients, which remain mysterious objects within our galaxy. Both fast radio bursts and these transients were first discovered in Australia, so it is great that we’re continuing the path of discovery with this impressive technology,” Dr Wang said.

Australian innovation ‘sifts’ space for mysteries - ICRAR

The first trial of an Australian-developed technology has detected mysterious objects by sifting through signals from space like sand on a beach. Astronomers and engineers at CSIRO, Australia’s national science agency, developed the specialised system, CRACO, for their ASKAP radio telescope to rapidly detect mysterious fast radio bursts and other space phenomena. The new technology […]

ICRAR beobachtet Anreicherung von Elementen in NGC 4383 | astropage.eu

Astronomen haben die erste hochauflösende Karte einer gewaltigen Explosion in der nahen Galaxie NGC 4383 erstellt. Sie gibt wichtige Hinweise darauf, wie der Raum zwischen den Galaxien mit chemischen Elementen angereichert wird. Ein internationales Forschungsteam untersuchte die Galaxie NGC 4383 im nahen Virgo-Galaxienhaufen und entdeckte eine Abströmung aus Gas, die so groß ist, dass das

Incredible what expertise in #ImageProcessing, #DataReduction, and #SoftwareDevelopment can get you.

Recognise the initial #JWST image on the left? Check out the faint light in the newly processed image on the right, created by @aaron and the #ICRAR JWST team!

Taking the James Webb Space Telescope's images to the next level - ICRAR

Researchers at the International Centre for Radio Astronomy Research (ICRAR) have released a spectacular new render of the first James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) image. Utilising specialised software, the new image shows the incredible capabilities of the JWST and the how deeply it can search the universe.
