This month, a new HST HLSP was released: Scylla is a multi-wavelength survey of areas of the SMC intended to resolve dust properties, constrain the structure, and probe the star formation history of the Magellanic Clouds. Updates were also made to GLASS-JWST, the OPAL outer planets survey, the REFERENCE-ATLASES survey, and two of our TESS-based HLSPs. A busy month!
This month marks the release of the first survey in the SDSS Legacy Archive at MAST, which will host all science-ready data from SDSS-I through SDSS-V. The first release includes data from the Mapping Nearby Galaxies at Apache Point Observatory (MaNGA) survey.
Two JWST-based HLSPs were released this month: SMILES, a multi-band imaging program, and WIDE, a spectral survey.
Lcviz, an interactive light curve viewer, is now live in the MAST Portal! View plots and begin your analysis without any need to download.
This month, two new JWST Data Analysis Tools notebooks were released. Both describe techniques for improving the quality of JWST data.
Three new Hubble HLSPs were released this month! CLUES is a FUV atlas of young stars, LMC-FLOWS is a collection of interstellar absorption lines, and NLR-AGN provides [O III] imaging of narrow line region outflows in nearby galaxies. Updates were also made to QLP and TICA.
MAST has released a JWST Duplication Observation Search tool to help investigators determine if their proposed observations are likely duplications of existing or planned observations.
MAST will be at the IAU General Assembly in Cape Town. Attend one of our talks, watch a hyperwall presentation, or visit us at the booth to try out our cloud science platform!
Updates were made to the BOSZ Synthetic Stellar Spectral Library; these updated models were then added to the REFERENCE-ATLASES collection. There were also updates to the TESS-based TICA and QLP HLSPs.
The PySIAF Footprint Viewer Notebook has new plotting and exporting tools, and the final MAST Summer Webinar videos have been uploaded.
This month, we continued the release of our summer webinar recordings. We've also added a notebook for JWST metadata queries using our newer MissionsMAST API!
This month, we added the Plane Quasar Survey, a catlog of UV-bright QSO candidates. Updates were also made to two of our TESS HLSPs.
Updates this month include the third data release from the JWST JADES survey, new observations of Jupiter's atmosphere from HST Cycle 30, and the latest quick-look light curves and full frame images from TESS.
The last few weeks have seen a flurry of new additions to our tutorials! We have new Jupyter Notebooks and videos on our YouTube channel; be sure to check them out.
