Tiny UK Satellite to Use Moon's Dark Side to Study Cosmic Dark Ages

发生了什么

A tiny UK-developed satellite, roughly the size of a small carry-on suitcase, could help answer one of the biggest questions in cosmology: what happened during the cosmic dark ages before the first stars appeared. The satellite will use the dark side of the Moon as a shield to enable its observations. The report highlights the satellite's potential to study a period of the universe's history that remains poorly understood. This mission could provide new insights into the early universe.
