The James Webb Space Telescope has captured an image of the rare 'Cosmic Owl,' a structure formed from the collision of two ring galaxies, providing insights into galaxy evolution and star formation processes, and serving as a natural laboratory for studying cosmic phenomena.
Citizen scientists and AI have discovered 430,000 galaxies, including 30,000 rare ring galaxies, using data from the Subaru Telescope. The "GALAXY CRUISE" project involved 10,000 volunteers and AI to sift through the telescope's massive data. The AI classified 400,000 galaxies as spiral and 30,000 as ring galaxies, shedding light on the rare galaxy type's formation and demonstrating the power of AI in astronomical data analysis.
