Researchers using an innovative astrodynamics algorithm have uncovered over 100 asteroids that had gone undetected in archived images of the sky. Asteroids are rocky objects left over from the ...

Researchers in China have improved the accuracy of detecting space junk in orbit around the earth. The goal of the project is to allow more effective plotting of safe routes for spacecraft maneuvers.

Will algorithms designed for interconnected computers hold up if some of the machines are not here on Earth but flying about in space, onboard satellites or spacecraft? Subscribe to our newsletter for ...

Spacecraft are great explorers, but they can be frustrating pen pals. The farther from home a probe ventures, the longer its dispatches take to reach eager humans on Earth and the terser such reports ...

For the first time, astronomers have used a machine learning algorithm – a form of self-teaching AI – to confirm the existence of exoplanets in data collected by the now-retired Kepler space telescope ...

Space junk: a computer-generated image of objects in Earth orbit that are currently being tracked. Approximately 95% of the objects are orbital debris, rather than functioning satellites. (Courtesy: ...

Microsoft's Space Partition Tree and Graph algorithm enables developers to apply vector search to traditional, audio and visual queries. Microsoft has made its Space Partition Tree And Graph (SPTAG) ...
