NASA AI/ML Science & Technology Interest Group
Building AI literacy for astronomical research through stackable, bite-sized modular training designed for the astronomy community.
A NASA initiative to bring AI into astronomy
NASA's Cosmic Origins Program
One of the three programs in NASA's Astrophysics division, Cosmic Origins studies how the universe's galaxies, stars, and cosmic structure formed and evolved — the science legacy of Hubble and the road toward the future Habitable Worlds Observatory.

Deep Learning for Astrophysics
The lecture series, curated into a single, freely available textbook — running from computational foundations and deep-learning architectures through generative modeling and inference to large-language-model agents. The notebook chapters are runnable, with their original outputs preserved, and the exercises use real astronomical data.
