The sensible selection of celestial objects for observation by the James Web Space Telescope (JWST) is pivotal for the precise decision-making (DM) process, aligning with scientific priorities and instrument capabilities to maximize valuable data acquisition to address key astronomical questions within the constraints of limited observation time. Aggregation operators are valuable models for condensing and summarizing a finite set of data of imprecise nature. Utilization of these operators is critical when addressing multi-attribute decision-making (MCDM) challenges. The complex spherical fuzzy (CSF) framework effectively captures and represents the uncertainty that arises in a DM problem with more precision. This paper presents two novel aggregation operators, namely the complex spherical fuzzy Yager weighted averaging (CSFYWA) operator and the complex spherical fuzzy Yager weighted geometric (CSFYWG) operator. Many fundamental structural properties of these operators are delineated, and thereby an improved score function is suggested that addresses the limitations of the existing score function within the CSF system. The newly defined operators are applied to formulate an algorithm for MADM problems to tackle the challenges of ambiguous data in the selection process. Moreover, these strategies are effectively applied to handle the MADM problem of selecting the optimal astronomical object for space observation within the CSF context. Additionally, a comparative analysis is also performed to demonstrate the validity and superiority of the proposed techniques compared to the existing strategies.
