For centuries, humans have sought to study the stars and celestial bodies, whether through observations made by naked eye or by telescopes on the ground and in space that can view the universe across nearly the entire electromagnetic spectrum. Each view unlocks new information about the denizens of space — X-ray pulsars, gamma-ray bursts — but one is still missing: the low-frequency radio sky.

Researchers from MIT Lincoln Laboratory, the MIT Haystack Observatory, and Lowell Observatory are working on a NASA-funded concept study called the Great Observatory for Long Wavelengths, or GO-LoW, that outlines a method to view the universe at as-of-yet unseen low frequencies using a constellation of thousands of small satellites. The wavelengths of these frequencies are 15 meters to several kilometers in length, which means they require a very big telescope in order to see clearly.

"GO-LoW will be a new kind of telescope, made up of many thousands of spacecraft that work together semi-autonomously, with limited input from Earth," says Mary Knapp, the principal investigator for GO-LoW at the MIT Haystack Observatory. "GO-LoW will allow humans to see the universe in a new light, opening up one of the very last frontiers in the electromagnetic spectrum."

The difficulty in viewing the low-frequency radio sky comes from Earth's ionosphere, a layer of the atmosphere that contains charged particles that prevent very low-frequency radio waves from passing through. Therefore, a space-based instrument is required to observe these wavelengths. Another challenge is that long-wavelength observations require correspondingly large telescopes, which would need to be many kilometers in length if built using traditional dish antenna designs. GO-LoW will use interferometry — a technique that combines signals from many spatially separated receivers that, when put together, will function as one large telescope — to obtain highly detailed data from exoplanets and other sources in space. A similar technique was used to make the first image of a black hole and, more recently, an image of the first known extrasolar radiation belts.

Melodie Kao, a member of the team from Lowell Observatory, says the data could reveal details about an exoplanet's makeup and potential for life. "[The radio wave aurora around an exoplanet] carries important information, such as whether or not the planet has a magnetic field, how strong it is, how fast the planet is rotating, and even hints about what's inside," she says. "Studying exoplanet radio aurorae and the magnetic fields that they trace is an important piece of the habitability puzzle, and it's a key science goal for GO-LoW."

Several recent trends and technology developments will make GO-LoW possible in the near future, such as the declining cost of mass-produced small satellites, the rise of mega-constellations, and the return of large, high-capacity launch vehicles like NASA's Space Launch System. Go-LoW would be the first mega-constellation that uses interferometry for scientific purposes.

The GO-LoW constellation will be built through several successive launches, each containing thousands of spacecraft. Once they reach low-Earth orbit, the spacecraft will be refueled before journeying on to their final destination — an Earth-sun Lagrange point where they will then be deployed. Lagrange points are regions in space where the gravitational forces of two large celestial bodies (like the sun and Earth) are in equilibrium, such that a spacecraft requires minimal fuel to maintain its position relative to the two larger bodies.  At this long distance from Earth (1 astronomical unit, or approximately 93 million miles), there will also be much less radio-frequency interference that would otherwise obscure GO-LoW’s sensitive measurements.

"GO-LoW will have a hierarchical architecture consisting of thousands of small listener nodes and a smaller number of larger communication and computation nodes (CCNs)," says Kat Kononov, a team member from Lincoln Laboratory's Applied Space Systems Group, who has been working with MIT Haystack staff since 2020, with Knapp serving as her mentor during graduate school. A node refers to an individual small satellite within the constellation. "The listener nodes are small, relatively simple 3U CubeSats — about the size of a loaf of bread — that collect data with their low-frequency antennas, store it in memory, and periodically send it to their communication and computation node via a radio link." In comparison, the CCNs are about the size of a mini-fridge.

The CCN will keep track of the positions of the listener nodes in their neighborhood; collect and reduce the data from their respective listener nodes (around 100 of them); and then transmit that data back to Earth, where more intensive data processing can be performed.

At full strength, with approximately 100,000 listener nodes, the GO-LoW constellation should be able to see exoplanets with magnetic fields in the solar neighborhood — within 5 to 10 parsecs — many for the very first time.

The GO-LoW research team recently published the results of their findings from Phase I of the study, which identified a type of advanced antenna called a vector sensor as the best type for this application. In 2024, Lincoln Laboratory designed a compact deployable version of the sensor suitable for use in space.

The team is now working on Phase II of the program, which is to build a multi-agent simulation of constellation operations.

"What we learned during the Phase I study is that the hard part for GO-LoW is not any specific technology … the hard part is the system: the system engineering and the autonomy to run the system," says Knapp. "So, how do we build this constellation such that it's a tractable problem? That's what we’re exploring in this next part of the study."

GO-LoW is one of many civil space programs at Lincoln Laboratory that aim to harness advanced technologies originally developed for national security to enable new space missions that support science and society. "By adapting these capabilities to serve new stakeholders, the laboratory helps open novel frontiers of discovery while building resilient, cost-effective systems that benefit the nation and the world," says Laura Kennedy, who is the deputy lead of Lincoln Laboratory's Civil Space Systems and Technology Office.

"Like landing on the moon in 1969, or launching Hubble in the 1990s, GO-LoW is envisioned to let us see something we've never seen before and generate scientific breakthroughs," says Kononov.

Go-LoW is a collaboration between Lincoln Laboratory, Haystack Observatory, and Lowell University, as well as Lenny Paritsky from LeafLabs and Jacob Turner from Cornell University.

It’s hard to keep up with the ever-changing trends of the fashion world. What’s “in” one minute is often out of style the next season, potentially causing you to re-evaluate your wardrobe.

Staying current with the latest fashion styles can be wasteful and expensive, though. Roughly 92 million tons of textile waste are produced annually, including the clothes we discard when they go out of style or no longer fit. But what if we could simply reassemble our clothes into whatever outfits we wanted, adapting to trends and the ways our bodies change?

A team of researchers at MIT’s Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (CSAIL) and Adobe are attempting to bring eco-friendly, versatile garments to life. Their new “Refashion” software system breaks down fashion design into modules — essentially, smaller building blocks — by allowing users to draw, plan, and visualize each element of a clothing item. The tool turns fashion ideas into a blueprint that outlines how to assemble each component into reconfigurable clothing, such as a pair of pants that can be transformed into a dress.

With Refashion, users simply draw shapes and place them together to develop an outline for adaptable fashion pieces. It’s a visual diagram that shows how to cut garments, providing a straightforward way to design things like a shirt with an attachable hood for rainy days. One could also create a skirt that can then be reconfigured into a dress for a formal dinner, or maternity wear that fits during different stages of pregnancy.

“We wanted to create garments that consider reuse from the start,” says Rebecca Lin, MIT Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science (EECS) PhD student, CSAIL and Media Lab researcher, and lead author on a paper presenting the project. “Most clothes you buy today are static, and are discarded when you no longer want them. Refashion instead makes the most of our garments by helping us design items that can be easily resized, repaired, or restyled into different outfits.”

Modules à la mode

The researchers conducted a preliminary user study where both designers and novices explored Refashion and were able to create garment prototypes. Participants assembled pieces such as an asymmetric top that could be extended into a jumpsuit, or remade into a formal dress, often within 30 minutes. These results suggest that Refashion has the potential to make prototyping garments more approachable and efficient. But what features might contribute to this ease of use?

Its interface first presents a simple grid in its “Pattern Editor” mode, where users can connect dots to outline the boundaries of a clothing item. It’s essentially drawing rectangular panels and specifying how different modules will connect to each other.

Users can customize the shape of each component, create a straight design for garments (which might be useful for less form-fitting items, like chinos) or perhaps tinkering with one of Refashion’s templates. A user can edit pre-designed blueprints for things like a T-shirt, fitted blouse, or trousers.

Another, more creative route is to change the design of individual modules. One can choose the “pleat” feature to fold a garment over itself, similar to an accordion, for starters. It’s a useful way to design something like a maxi dress. The “gather” option adds an artsy flourish, where a garment is crumpled together to create puffy skirts or sleeves. A user might even go with the “dart” module, which removes a triangular piece from the fabric. It allows for shaping a garment at the waist (perhaps for a pencil skirt) or tailor to the upper body (fitted shirts, for instance).

While it might seem that each of these components needs to be sewn together, Refashion enables users to connect garments through more flexible, efficient means. Edges can be seamed together via double-sided connectors such as metal snaps (like the buttons used to close a denim jacket) or Velcro dots. A user could also fasten them in pins called brads, which have a pointed side that they stick through a hole and split into two “legs” to attach to another surface; it’s a handy way to secure, say, a picture on a poster board. Both connective methods make it easy to reconfigure modules, should they be damaged or a “fit check” calls for a new look.

As a user designs their clothing piece, the system automatically creates a simplified diagram of how it can be assembled. The pattern is divided into numbered blocks, which is dragged onto different parts of a 2D mannequin to specify the position of each component. The user can then simulate how their sustainable clothing will look on 3D models of a range of body types (one can also upload a model).

Finally, a digital blueprint for sustainable clothing can extend, shorten, or combine with other pieces. Thanks to Refashion, a new piece could be emblematic of a potential shift in fashion: Instead of buying new clothes every time we want a new outfit, we can simply reconfigure existing ones. Yesterday’s scarf could be today’s hat, and today’s T-shirt could be tomorrow’s jacket.

“Rebecca’s work is at an exciting intersection between computation and art, craft, and design,” says MIT EECS professor and CSAIL principal investigator Erik Demaine, who advises Lin. “I’m excited to see how Refashion can make custom fashion design accessible to the wearer, while also making clothes more reusable and sustainable.”

Constant change

While Refashion presents a greener vision for the future of fashion, the researchers note that they’re actively improving the system. They intend to revise the interface to support more durable items, stepping beyond standard prototyping fabrics. Refashion may soon support other modules, like curved panels, as well. The CSAIL-Adobe team may also evaluate whether their system can use as few materials as possible to minimize waste, and whether it can help “remix” old store-bought outfits.

Lin also plans to develop new computational tools that help designers create unique, personalized outfits using colors and textures. She’s exploring how to design clothing by patchwork — essentially, cutting out small pieces from materials like decorative fabrics, recycled denim, and crochet blocks and assembling them into a larger item.

“This is a great example of how computer-aided design can also be key in supporting more sustainable practices in the fashion industry,” says Adrien Bousseau, a senior researcher at Inria Centre at Université Côte d'Azur who wasn’t involved in the paper. “By promoting garment alteration from the ground up, they developed a novel design interface and accompanying optimization algorithm that helps designers create garments that can undergo a longer lifetime through reconfiguration. While sustainability often imposes additional constraints on industrial production, I am confident that research like the one by Lin and her colleagues will empower designers in innovating despite these constraints.”

Lin wrote the paper with Adobe Research scientists Michal Lukáč and Mackenzie Leake, who is the paper’s senior author and a former CSAIL postdoc. Their work was supported, in part, by the MIT Morningside Academy for Design, an MIT MAKE Design-2-Making Mini-Grant, and the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada. The researchers presented their work recently at the ACM Symposium on User Interface Software and Technology.
