NASA successfully launched the space celestial probe
On June 5, the US Space Agency (NASA) successfully launched a missile carrying a celestial observatory probe named CIBER with the aim of studying the formation of the first galaxy.
NASA said the Black Brant XII rocket was launched at 3:05 GMT from NASA's Wallops Flight Facility launcher in Virginia, USA.
With CIBER, scientists will study the time when the first stars and galaxies formed in the universe and the brightness when they burned the core fuel.
This is CIBER's fourth flight on a NASA rocket. The previous flights were respectively in 2009, 2010 and 2012 from White Sands launchers in New Mexico, USA. However, this time, the CIBER was launched with a larger and stronger missile than the previous time, bringing the ship to higher altitudes so that it would have a longer observation time.
The upper launch of CIBER, which was scheduled to take place on the evening of May 4, was rescheduled due to the lack of cooling time in the head device to the required temperature.
