The Gemini-3.5 telescope, a powerful observatory, has been upgraded to enhance its capabilities in studying the universe. This upgrade is crucial as it allows for more detailed observations and contributes significantly to astronomical research.

A study finds that foundation models in astronomy, trained on survey data including incomplete catalogues, inherit biases related to pixel-level incompleteness, potentially skewing mean redshift measurements. This matters because it highlights systemic issues in how astronomical data is processed and analyzed, impacting the accuracy of cosmological observations.
