Breaking the Scaling Limits: New Ultralow-noise Superconducting Camera for Exoplanet Searches - NASA Science
When imaging faint objects such as distant stars or exoplanets, capturing every last bit of light is crucial to get the most out of a scientific mission. These cameras must be extremely low-noise, and be able to detect the smallest quantities of light—single photons. Superconducting cameras excel in both of these criteria, but have historically […]
