Other entities that clear the same relevance threshold in stories also covering Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF). Shared-story counts are live from our verified record — not editorial picks.
Discovery Published
Scientists publish the confirmed discovery of a wandering supermassive black hole shredding a star in The Astrophysical Journal Letters.
Bright Flare Detected in Cetus
ZTF scans detect an unusual flare in the constellation Cetus; tdescore flags it as a candidate TDE despite its off-center galaxy location.
AI Tool tdescore Deployed
Robert Stein's team begins using tdescore to automatically identify tidal disruption events from ZTF survey data, processing half a million flashes per night.
NASA's Swift Observatory, cued by an AI-driven survey, has confirmed the first tidal disruption event from a wandering supermassive black hole far from its galaxy's center. The detection showcases the fusion of large-scale astronomical surveys and machine learning to find otherwise invisible celestial threats, with direct implications for space domain awareness and defense surveillance networks.
