How A Balloon-Borne Antarctic Telescope Could Help Detect An Earth 2.0 An LSU-led team would like to use a high-flying Antarctic balloon-borne infrared telescope to detect the chemical makeup of some 300 red dwarf stars.

Up in the sky! It's a bird! It's a plane! It's an Antarctic balloon mission!

Thanks to @bdorminey.bsky.social for talking with me about my team's high res, near infrared spectrograph proposal to measure M-dwarf compositions for planets and galactic chemistry!

All of the new data, upgrades, and changes from beta have been pushed to the main website: hypatiacatalog.com!

So, if you go to the "new" page, it will either redirect you or give you a certificate warning.

Thanks to all of our users and for the great feedback. 😃

Has this ever been you:
You have a bunch of stars you want to understand, but the data is scattered making it hard to cross-correlate, so you think, "Wow, I really wish there was a database for this."

Well now you can make your own niche database!
