Set up the first three-dimensional universe map

Astronomers at the California Institute of Technology, USA have successfully established the first three-dimensional cosmic space map of dark matter in the universe.

The team, headed by British astronomer Richard Massey, of the California Institute of Technology, used NASA satellite-shaped special telescopes - this special telescope can bend light , collect different dimensional images from the planets.

This new three-dimensional space map has been established as the latest evidence that can see ordinary matter accumulated in galaxies and the distribution of dark matter.

This map shows how dark matter has evolved, mass growth and destruction under the influence of gravity.

For astronomers, the acquisition of images of dark matter is like capturing images of a midnight city, unable to see dark matter but only seeing the galaxies directly emitting. shining.

Now, on a three-dimensional space map, these images look like images of a city with suburbs and rural roads clearly showing main roads, intersections . . and other images in the vicinity taken in daylight conditions.

The success of setting up this three-dimensional space map is the basis for understanding how the galaxies have grown and gathered over billions of years.
