New FLIP Software Unmasks Hidden Exoplanet in Archival James Webb Data
Astrophysicists at Northwestern University have unveiled a computational technique that effectively “turns off” the blinding glare of distant stars, allowing the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) to reveal planets that were previously hidden in its own archival data. The method, called FLIP (Physics-based Learning for Imaging Planets), has already recovered a giant exoplanet, 51 Eridani … Read more
