Artificial Intelligence To Space Science: Says NASA
NASA is planning to leverage artificial intelligence computational tools to upgrade space science.
Artificial Intelligence To Space Science
Artificial intelligence (AI) is transforming industries worldwide, from healthcare to finance. Now, NASA is harnessing AI to aid scientists in their quest to explore the vastness of space. A remarkable example is the use of AI in identifying minerals within rocks studied by the Perseverance rover.
Recently as well, Nicola Fox, NASA's Associate Administrator for the Science Mission Directorate, spoke at the Supercomputing conference (SC2024) about the new computational tools powered by artificial intelligence (AI). These instruments are designed to enhance space science.
During the event, Fox explained that NASA plans to use large launch models in its science division. This innovative approach will enable scientists to process vast amounts of data, leading to new and unique discoveries and a deeper understanding of the universe.
Fox additionally pointed out the accomplishments of NASA's Voyager Mission. If we talk about that, it's a space exploration program that began in 1977. She stated that the voyager mission has acted as a watershed moment in computing space exploration by demonstrating the potential for future computational breakthroughs in space science.
Thus, it is true that introducing an AI tool to space science can assist space organisations in exploring problems that were before unexplored or understood.
