The largest observation program of the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) has released its data: nearly 800,000 galaxies observed in unprecedented detail. COSMOS-Web thus offers the most extensive and deepest view of the universe ever obtained. In this data release, the Instituto de Astrofísica de Canarias (IAC) has played a key role, performing the morphological classification of more than half a million galaxies using neural networks, a crucial contribution to explore how galaxies form and evolve over cosmic time. COSMOS-Web was the largest General Observer program selected for Cycle 1 of
The Instituto de Astrofísica de Canarias (IAC) is actively participating in the observation of object 3I/ATLAS (C/2025 N1 ATLAS), initially included as A11pl3Z in the confirmed list of Near-Earth Objects (NEOs) of the International Astronomical Union's Minor Planet Centre (IAU/MPC). The object, which has been shown to be the third interstellar object detected in our solar system, was discovered by one of the telescopes in the ATLAS network for the detection and early warning of asteroids on an Earth-impact trajectory. The IAC is part of this network with its new telescope structure, ATLAS
The Solar System research group at the Instituto de Astrofísica de Canarias (IAC) is participating in the international programme to keep a closet track of asteroid 2024 YR4. The aim is to determine its orbit with the highest possible precision before it stops being observable by ground based and satellite telescopes in April, and so improving our value of the probability that it will impact the Earth in 2032. In this context several telescopes of the Canary Observatories of the IAC are playing an outstanding role in this observing campaign: The Gran Telescopio Canarias (GTC) at the Roque de
