The IAA has been endowed by the CSIC with nearly one hundred thousand euros to strengthen the capacities of the scientific community that will use SKAO through the Spanish SKA Regional Centre. 

"CSIC4SKA", led by the IAA-CSIC, was one of five projects funded under the CSIC Programme for Large European Research Infrastructures.

The Instituto de Astrofísica de Andalucía (IAA-CSIC) participates in both its technological development and its scientific objectives.

Researchers from IAA-CSIC lead a new method to measure carbon dioxide snow and frost variations on Mars surface.

The initial results indicate that the deposited snow thickness is up to two orders of magnitude greater than estimated.

IAA-CSIC researchers participate in the discovery of one of the few known planetary systems in this type of stars

The results, published today in Nature Astronomy, have been contributed by the Sierra Nevada and Calar Alto observatories

The Instituto de Astrofísica de Andalucía (IAA-CSIC) is co-leading the study of the second lightest planet discovered to date.

Explosion of a supergiant star detected just one hour after its collapse.
 
Amateur observatories have been key in detecting the supernova in its initial phases.
 
The IAA-CSIC participates in this study published in Nature through its global network of robotic telescopes BOOTES.
 

The IAA-CSIC participates in the first image of the supermassive black hole of our galaxy in polarised light.

The Hispanic Astronomical Center in Andalusia (CAHA), the Spanish Higher Council for Scientific Research (CSIC), and the University of Córdoba (UCO) have signed an action protocol to develop educational and scientific-technological activities in the field of astronomy.
Calar Alto has already signed four collaboration agreements with Andalusian public universities.

A study involving the Instituto de Astrofísica de Andalucía (IAA-CSIC) shows a kilonova as a source of heavy elements, including the precious 'rare earths'.

The work, published in Nature, highlights this type of explosive and extremely energetic phenomena as the ideal environment for the formation of metals heavier than iron and silver.

The Instituto de Astrofísica de Andalucía (IAA-CSIC) participates in both its technological development and its scientific return.

The mission will study Venus's core and atmosphere to understand its volcanic activity and climate and find out how this twin of Earth became so inhospitable.
