Detailed map of dust in Milky Way

Astronomy's dirty window to space: A detailed map of dust in the Milky Way
When we observe distant celestial objects, there is a possible catch: Is that star I am observing really as reddish as it appears? Or does the star merely look reddish, since its light has had to travel through a cloud of cosmic dust to reach our telescope?
Detailed map of dust in the Milky Way
Astronomers have constructed the first detailed 3D map of the properties of cosmic dust in our home galaxy. For their map, the astronomers used 130 million spectra from ESA's Gaia mission, results from the LAMOST spectral survey,
Cosmic map reveals that the Milky Way's dust has very unusual properties
Previous efforts to map the galaxy's dust were challenged by limited data, but the Gaia mission has provided a treasure trove of information.
Astronomers Just Created the Most Detailed 3D Map of Cosmic Dust Yet
Voluminous clouds of cosmic dust permeate our galaxy, but only recently has software allowed detailed observations of the stuff at scale.
Astronomers Unveil First 3D Map of Milky Way's Interstellar Dust
Astronomers have developed the first three-dimensional (3D) map detailing the properties of interstellar dust in the Milky Way, marking a significant breakthrough for precise astronomical observation and studies in astrochemistry and galactic evolution.
Researchers reveal 1st 3D map of properties of interstellar dust in Milky Way
Researchers have revealed the first three-dimensional (3D) map of the properties of interstellar dust in the Milky Way Galaxy, Xinhua News reported Friday. The breakthrough will play a crucial role in enhancing precise astronomical observations and advancing research in astrochemistry and galactic evolution.
Scientists create the most detailed 3D map of dust in the Milky Way
Using advanced artificial intelligence (AI) techniques, they trained a neural network to model the dust’s effect on starlight. By applying this model to the Gaia data, they were able to map out the 3D structure of dust across the Milky Way like never before.
Astronomers reveal first 3D map of Milky Way’s interstellar dust
Beijing: An international team of astronomers has unveiled the first three-dimensional (3D) map of the properties of interstellar dust in the Milky Way. This breakthrough will provide critical support for precise astronomical observation,
