Abstract: As self-driving vehicles become more prevalent, the speed and accuracy of detecting surrounding objects through onboard sensing technology have become increasingly important. The YOLOv8-QSD ...

Abstract: Visible-thermal small object detection (RGBT SOD) is a significant yet challenging task with a wide range of applications, including video surveillance, traffic monitoring, search and rescue ...

3I/ATLAS, a mysterious interstellar object racing toward the Sun, is baffling scientists with its speed and origin. Some researchers suggest it could even be alien-made, drawing comparisons to probes ...

A new analysis of our solar system’s interstellar interloper, 3I/ATLAS, reveals that it’s spewing huge amounts of water — and astronomers can’t immediately explain why. The object, which is widely ...

Here’s what you’ll learn when you read this story: Object 3I/ATLAS is now too far from Earth to aim a telescope at, but prior observations showed some unusual behavior. The anomalous nature of the ...

Astronomers have detected an unusually powerful and compact object in a nearby galaxy, one so bright and unique that it may represent an entirely new class of cosmic phenomena. The source, named ...

It’s probe-ably nothing. The newly discovered Manhattan-sized interstellar object zooming through our solar system has been identified as a comet — but two Harvard scientists argue there is reason to ...

Earlier this month, astronomers were thrilled to spot an interstellar object — only the third of its kind ever observed — hurtling toward the center of the solar system on an extremely unusual ...

This object, called 2020 VN40, is the first confirmed body that orbits the sun once for every ten orbits Neptune completes. Cambridge, MA — A team of astronomers led by the Center for Astrophysics | ...

How do we know 3I/ATLAS, also called comet C/2025 N1 (ATLAS), is interstellar? Will it strike Earth? Can we visit it? Here are all of your questions answered. When you purchase through links on our ...

Swinburne University of Technology provides funding as a member of The Conversation AU. This week, astronomers spotted the third known interstellar visitor to our Solar System. First detected by the ...
