Interstellar Objects Can't Hide From Vera Rubin
Updated: 2024-11-30 15:50:38
When the Vera Rubin Observatory comes online in a few months, it'll be the most effective asteroid and comet hunter ever built. And not just the homegrown variety, Rubin will discover interstellar objects like Oumuamua and Borisov passing through the Solar System. A new paper suggests the kinds of machine learning algorithms that will have the best chance of uncovering these fast-moving objects as they move through the field of view from night to night.

The early Universe was filled with dwarf galaxies and its just possible that globular clusters are the remains of these ancient relics . Analysis of the stars in the clusters reveals ages in the region of 12-13 billion years old . A new paper just published shows that the globular clusters are home to two distinct

Observatory There are a great deal of problems with this due to different errors in the readings , so to start with I've simply taken the average reading on each day . I've used this to calculate the variance from the average at each 5 minute interval during each day , and then averaged all these . together This doesn't get a nice result of the diurnal magnetometer reading cycle so I've excluded everything outside one
