New Telescope Could Reshape Our View Of The Cosmos

Cosmology, Tech /

ESO installed the 4-metre Multi-Object Spectroscopic Telescope (4MOST) on its VISTA telescope in Chile. Unlike traditional telescopes that capture images, 4MOST records spectra, analyzing the light of each object across all its individual colors. This allows it to break down the light from 2,400 celestial objects at once into 18,000 color components, enabling astronomers to
