Not exact matches

The team observed the star with the infrared Spitzer and ultraviolet Swift space telescopes from October 2015 to December 2016 — the first observations in multiple wavelengths of light.

The discovery sprang from an observation by NASA's Spitzer Space Telescope, which spotted the infrared glow of a band of dust near a bright star called Eta Corvi.

But new observations by Herschel, a far infrared space observatory operated by the European Space Agency, show that massive elliptical galaxies can form from the merger of two large galaspace observatory operated by the European Space Agency, show that massive elliptical galaxies can form from the merger of two large galaSpace Agency, show that massive elliptical galaxies can form from the merger of two large galaxies.

To determine just how far away they are, researchers will combine the information from the Hubble images with observations taken by NASA's Spitzer and Chandra space telescopes, which see in infrared and x-ray light, respectively.

Modern astronomy has moved light years ahead with the opening up to observation of new parts of the electromagnetic spectrum, from infrared (the Spitzer Space Telescope, launched in 2003) to gamma (the Integral Space Observatory, launched in 2002).

They combined observations in the visible and the near infrared from the Hubble Space Telescope with radio observations from the Very Large Array and the Submillimeter Array to explore the effect of the turbulence, stellar radiation, and magnetic field on massive star formation in the galaxy's nuclear ring.

The observations have involved dozens of telescopes around the world and in space and at wavelengths from visible light through the infrared to radio.

This infrared image combines data from NASAs Spitzer Space Telescope with shorter - wavelength observations from the Two Micron All Sky Survey (2MASS), letting us peer into the clouds of dust wrapped around this stellar nursery.

With the high thermal backgrounds of ground - based infrared observations, a near - infrared full sky survey at sub-uJy sensitivity is only feasible from space.

Infrared observations from NASA's Spitzer Space Telescope of these blackest - of - black regions in the cloud paradoxically light the way to understanding how the brightest stars form.

Future high - resolution infrared observations from the James Webb Space Telescope will complement these discoveries by providing greater detail of the dynamics of cool stars, gas and dust during galaxy collisions.

The photodetector array camera and spectrometer (PACS) aboard the Herschel Space Observatory allows imaging observations in the far infrared at unprecedented resolution, i.e. at better than 6» to 12» over the wavelength range of 60 -LCB- \ mu -RCB- m to 210 -LCB- \ mu -RCB- m. Together with the results from ground - based observations, these spatially resolved data can be modelled to determine the nature of the debris and its evolution more reliably than would be possible from unresolved data alone.

The image is of an observation from the Herschel Space Observatory taken in infrared light.

In this NASA & ESA Hubble Space Telescope image of NGC 7479 — created from observations at visible and near - infrared wavelengths — the tightly wound arms of the spiral galaxy create an inverted «S», as they spin in an anticlockwise direction.
