NASA & IBM Built An AI To Find Moon Water So We Don't Die Of Thirst Up There
IBM and NASA have teamed up to launch the NASA-IBM Lunar Foundation Model, an open-source AI built to analyze petabytes of observations collected over decades of moon missions. Hosted publicly on Hugging Face alongside its GitHub codebase, the model gives researchers a unified tool to process complex, multi-sensor datasets that previously had to be sifted through manually or fed into single-use algorithms using high-performance computing resources.
"NASA has spent decades building an extraordinary scientific record of the Moon, but collecting data is only part of the job," said Kevin Murphy, chief science data officer and acting chief data and AI officer at NASA Headquarters in Washington. "We also have to make data easier for scientists to explore and use. The NASA-IBM Lunar Foundation Model shows what's possible when we bring AI to NASA’s petabytes of scientific data. That’s a real opportunity we see with AI: turning large-scale data into...
