Researchers have developed a new coronagraph that could make it possible to see distant exoplanets obscured by light from their parent stars. Researchers have developed a new coronagraph -- an ...

This is what a recent study published in Optica hopes to address as a team of researchers developed a new type of coronagraph, which is designed to block starlight and reveal exoplanets, that could ...

Researchers developed a new coronagraph that could make it possible to see exoplanets that are normally obscured by light from their parent stars. The images show theoretical, experimental and ...

To capture an image of the exoplanet without the star, the new coronagraph design uses a mode sorter to isolate and eliminate light from the star and an inverse mode sorter to recompose the ...

Near real-time preliminary data from NOAA's first Compact Coronagraph (CCOR-1), a powerful solar telescope onboard the GOES-19 satellite, are now publicly accessible. GOES-19, launched in June ...

The April 14 first light image from PUNCH’s NFI coronagraph shows the bright corona around a blocked-out Sun, centered against the stars of Pisces. The crescents at right are image artifacts ...

Was Mars a dry and cold planet billions of years ago like we see today, or was it warmer, wetter, and possibly having the conditions for life as we know it? This is what a recent study published in ...

If that's not exciting enough for scientists, this satellite also hosts NOAA's first compact coronagraph instrument (CCOR-1), monitoring the sun's activity. "CCOR-1 is a game-changer for ensuring ...

Roman could multiply that impact. With its unique design and cutting-edge technology, including a starlight-blocking coronagraph to observe exoplanets directly, Roman could bring us closer to ...

Check out the vibrant first photo from PUNCH, a NASA mission that is hitting the ground running with some neat shots of the Sun. PUNCH—short for the Polarimeter to Unify the Corona and ...
