Amazing images: The telescope caught 4.4 million 'monsters' from black holes to galaxies

Scientists have used the LOFAR Low-Frequency Radio Telescope Array to map more than a quarter of the northern sky as seen from Earth, revealing a series of stunning cosmic monsters.

Scientists have used the LOFAR Low-Frequency Radio Telescope Array to map more than a quarter of the northern sky as seen from Earth, revealing a dizzying array of cosmic monsters.

The map of the universe is shaped like a beam of light, inside it contains a picture of the dynamic universe, with most objects billions of light years from Earth. Astronomers say this data will provide new insight into a wide range of signals that can be detected from Earth from planets, galaxies, monster black holes. and countless other forms. other magical astronomical objects.

The fantasy universe map has just been released

The map is a collection of radio signals recorded from many locations scattered across Europe. According to the Daily Mail, the map has completed 27% of the sky.

LOFAR is a state-of-the-art observation system used to collect radio signals, especially ancient radiation, produced by astronomical objects millions and billions of light-years away.

LOFAR was first launched in 2010 in the UK, Netherlands, Germany, France, Sweden and Poland. A series of antennas operating at the lowest FM frequencies were installed throughout Europe for access from Earth.

To create the map, the LOFAR operations team from many institutes and schools across Europe deployed a series of state-of-the-art data processing algorithms on high-performance computers across Europe, with a total of 3,500 datasets. observation hours.

Among the objects published in this map, there are about 1 million objects that have never been recorded before.
