Today, ESA’s powerful X-ray observatory, #XMMNewton, celebrates 25 years in space. Teledyne Space Imaging has provided three types of CCD sensor in all three of its scientific instruments: 🔹1x CCD02-06 in the Optical/UV Monitor Telescope (OM) 🔹14x CCD22 in the European Photon Imaging Camera (EPIC) 🔹18x CCD15-20 in the Reflection Grating Spectrometer (RGS) Teledyne Space Imaging is proud to have supplied 33 CCD sensors aboard XMM-Newton and helped the telescope deliver many ground-breaking observations of a variety of celestial objects. #ESA #ESAscience #EuropeanSpaceAgency #CosmicDiscovery #SpaceExploration #TeledyneSpace #TeledyneSpaceImaging @ European Space Agency - ESA

The composite image of crab nebula is the result of X-ray inputs received from Chandra Observatory along with infrared data received from the Webb space telescope. The crab nebula is situated around 6,500 light-years from Earth.

Why two? Because we get twice the sky coverage! With one telescope in the northern hemisphere and one in the southern hemisphere, the #USELTP system will be able to observe the entire night sky with a sensitivity and resolution unrivaled by any existing telescopes on the planet. This means that researchers will be able to observe rare and interesting objects wherever in the sky they occur, something not possible with a single telescope👇 https://ow.ly/gMWX50U1Www 📷 US-ELTP (TIO/NOIRLab/GMTO)

What can you learn about exoplanets by creating an "artificial" eclipse? Turns out, a lot! Swipe through to learn about the history of coronagraphs and how JPL's Roman Coronagraph Instrument, which is being built as a technology demonstration for the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope, could vastly increase the number of planets outside our solar system that scientists can directly observe.

We need the right equipment, like the James Webb Space Telescope, to cut through the noise and reveal what’s out there. After discovering how the JWST works, I couldn’t help but draw a parallel to what we do at Sourcing. The telescope uses infrared wavelengths to collect light from distant stars and galaxies, filtering out electronic noise to improve the clarity of its data. It removes all the unnecessary “noise” to reveal an accurate picture of the universe. While we’re not trying to find the centre of the universe, we’re tackling a similar challenge. The concept is simple. Our platform gives our clients the necessary information, including when and where they need it. An incident is a call to action with a responsible party and an SLA. From an incident point of view, the rest is noise. A performance report is a periodic or ad hoc report designed to enable problem resolution or decision-making. From a performance management point of view, the rest is noise. If you're tired of drowning in alerts, talk to us and experience the clarity of MaaS.

1,300 light-years from Earth, our James Webb Space Telescope has spotted a cosmic phenomenon for the first time. This new photo of the Serpens Nebula shows an intriguing group of protostellar outflows—the red clumps in the top-left corner, formed when gas jets spewing from newborn stars collide with nearby gas and dust at high speeds: https://lnkd.in/gDYWvx2p

This video is a 3D visualization of galaxies observed with the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) NIRCam (Near-Infrared Camera) instrument for the JWST Advanced Deep Extragalactic Survey, or JADES. This visualization includes 9,500 galaxies from a...

✨ 1,300 light-years away from Earth A new image → from the James Webb Space Telescope of the Serpens Nebula shows aligned jets from forming stars, supporting the theory that star clusters spin in the same direction. This image, capturing never-before-seen "protostellar outflows" in the top left, provides direct evidence of the fundamental processes involved in star formation. https://lnkd.in/e-uUDCps
