A pair of #astronomers at the European Space Agency (ESA) discovered more than 800 previously undocumented “astrophysical anomalies” hiding in #Hubble’s archives. To do so, researchers David O’Ryan and Pablo Gómez trained an #AI model to comb through Hubble’s 35-year dataset.
The AI model took just 2.5 days to search 100 million image cutouts and flag oddities like jellyfish galaxies. https://www.theverge.com/news/869182/astronomers-ai-discover-cosmic-anomalies-hubble-archives
