Report summary

Anthropic's Claude Science has drawn a complete ultraviolet sky map for the first time. The project was coordinated by Claude Science across multiple AI agents, which downloaded data from several space missions, calibrated and merged it, then used inpainting techniques to fill in missing regions; in testing, predicted values deviated from actual measurements by about 10% on average. Johns Hopkins University astrophysicist Brice Ménard described this process on Anthropic's official website and said the map will be used as teaching material.

    Anthropic’s Claude Science maps the first complete ultraviolet sky

    Anthropic’s Claude Science has produced the first complete map of the ultraviolet sky. Claude Science coordinated multiple AI agents to download data from several space missions, calibrate and combine it, then use inpainting to fill gaps. In tests, predictions differed from actual measurements by about 10% on average. Johns Hopkins astrophysicist Brice Ménard described the process on Anthropic’s website and said the map will be used as teaching material.

    Astrophysicist uses Claude Science to create the first complete ultraviolet map of the sky

    Astrophysicist Brice Ménard worked with Claude Science to create the first complete map of the ultraviolet sky. Astronomers had already mapped the whole sky from radio waves to gamma rays, but large areas had never been observed in ultraviolet.
