We took 14 #exoplanet@distantworlds.space ) to ask the question: "what information do I gain as I add in more optical data?" to demonstrate the need for @NASAHubble UV/optical measurements
To assess changes to the measured parameters from one model fit to the next containing more data we compute the change in Information Content - a metric to define the increase in information you have with the new model. Higher number == more information gained with new model
