From the mid-19th century to the end of the 20th century, photographic plates served as the primary detectors for astronomical observations. Astronomical photographic observations in China began in 1901, and over a century, a total of…
Astronomy is entering a new era of discovery, coincident with the establishment of new facilities for observation and simulation that will routinely generate petabytes of data. While an increasing reliance on automated data analysis is…
Modern Earth Observation (EO) missions generate massive volumes of imagery that challenge existing downlink and ground-processing capabilities, particularly for time-critical applications. This work investigates how a low Earth orbit (LEO)…
The term artificial intelligence (AI) first appeared in the mid-20th century. It wasn't until well into the 21st century that AI began to flourish. Today, AI has found very diverse applications. One area that is just beginning to be…
In the context of astronomy projects, scientists have been confronted with the problem of describing in a standardized way how their data have been produced. As presented in a talk at last year's ADASS, the International Virtual Observatory…
