AI combed Hubble’s archive, saw hundreds of cosmic anomalies
View larger. | AI combed Hubble’s archive, revealing – among hundreds of other discoveries – these 6 previously undiscovered, weird, and fascinating astrophysical objects. Of these 6, 3 are lenses with arcs distorted by gravity, one is a galactic merger, one is a ring galaxy, and one galaxy defied classification. Find more detail about these 6 objects here.

A team of astronomers from the European Space Agency (ESA) used their self-developed artificial intelligence algorithm to search the Hubble Space Telescope's image archive for unusual astronomical objects. As they report in the journal Astronomy & Astrophysics, the system combed through nearly 100 million image slices in just two and a half days, uncovering nearly 1,400 anomalies, more than 800 of which had never been documented before.
AI Used to Find Anomalous Objects in Hubble Images
