The European Space Agency’s Euclid mission released its first batch of survey data, including a preview of its deep fields. Using Artificial Intelligence (AI) algorithms in combination with citizen science campaigns, the Euclid Consortium scientific results include the discovery of strong gravitational lensing systems, the exploration of galaxy clusters and the cosmic web, the characterisation of active galactic nuclei (AGN) and quasars, studies on galaxy evolution and morphology, and the identification of numerous dwarf galaxies and transients. Spain has an important role in the Euclid

The international CTAO LST Collaboration , in which the Instituto de Astrofísica de Canarias (IAC) plays a prominent role, released remarkable findings from observations of GRB 221009A—the brightest gamma-ray burst (GRB) ever recorded. The results were published by the renowned journal The Astrophysical Journal Letters (ApJ Letters) . The publication presents in-depth observations conducted in 2022 with the Large-Sized Telescope (LST ) prototype, the LST-1, during its commissioning phase at the Roque de los Muchachos Observatory (ORM) on the CTAO-North site in La Palma, Spain. The

The distribution of planets in the over five thousand distant solar systems discovered to date forms a complex puzzle. There is a region in the planetary orbit graph, known as the " Neptunian desert", where very few Neptune-like planets with orbits of between two and four days period around their star have been recorded to date. Now, a scientific team led by the Instituto de Astrofísica de Canarias (IAC) and the Instituto de Astrofísica de Andalucía-Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas (IAA-CSIC) , using a novel technique, new planets around red dwarf stars located precisely in
