NASA Observes Both Sides of Uranus as Exoplanet Proxy, Enhancing Future Imaging Missions
Oct 9, 2024, 07:17 PM
NASA's Hubble Space Telescope and New Horizons spacecraft have conducted simultaneous observations of both sides of Uranus. By comparing Hubble's high-resolution atmospheric data with New Horizons' distant view, astronomers have used Uranus as a proxy for an exoplanet, testing how exoplanets might appear from afar. The findings offer valuable insights into exoplanet imaging techniques and can help inform future missions designed to image distant planets.
