NASA shares SPHEREx sky survey data weekly to enable global cosmic research
Pasadena CA (JPL) Jul 07, 2025 NASA's SPHEREx space telescope, launched in March, has begun publicly releasing data from its infrared sky survey, offering scientists worldwide weekly access to its extensive cosmic observations. The mission is designed to map the entire sky twice a year over a two-year period, capturing images in 102 infrared wavelengths to support investigations ranging from the origins of the universe to the precursors of life. Settled in low-Earth orbit, SPHEREx - short for Spectro-Photometer for the History ... read more |

Cosmic Himalayas quasar cluster defies explanation
Tokyo, Japan (SPX) Jun 04, 2025 A newly discovered cluster of eleven quasars has shattered the previous record of five. Rather than being associated with a dense group of galaxies, these quasars sit on the boundary between two groups of galaxies. This structure, dubbed the "Cosmic Himalayas," cannot be explained by conventional theories, forcing astronomers to rethink the formation scenarios for quasars. Quasars are some of the brightest objects in the Universe. A quasar is powered by large amounts of matter falling into the sup ... read more
