BRENT: Space experts have found 26 new remote galaxies employing a new device called MUSE mounted on Europe’s Very Large Telescope (VLT). MUSE has delivered the clearest 3D perspective of the deep space so far, after only 27 hours of screening the skies.
MUSE (short for Multi Unit Spectroscopic Explorer) takes high-definition pictures of deep Universe and breaks down the light coming from emote celestial objects into its colors to study the structure, distance and dynamic of galaxies.
The $25 million device, which took 10 years to develop and assemble, began working a year ago as a part of the European Southern Observatory’s VLT array headquartered in the Atacama desert from Chile.
Its first findings have given stargazers the best known three-dimensional perspective of the deep space according to ESO. Their statement read:
“The new observations reveal the distances, motions and other properties of far more galaxies than ever before in this tiny piece of the sky.”
MUSE has enabled the group of space experts to study cosmic bodies that even Hubble, the strong orbiting telescope, has not detected.
A joint venture of the American and European space agencies, Hubble has caught notorious long exposure pictures that served studies related to the young Universe.
