Study the 'dark energy' source in the galaxy
It is well known that vast space has formed after the "big explosion" 13.8 billion years ago. But right from the late 90s of last century, international astronomers discovered that the galaxy, including our solar system, is still growing at a rapid rate. This result comes from the study of explosions from stars, and the appearance of "dark energy" - the core essence that makes the galaxy's constant openness.
In order to deeply analyze the nature of the "dark energy ", a powerful new generation ground telescope is required, capable of covering faraway space spaces that are quietly "expanding" a wider one.
So a huge telescope has been promoted by American scientists in the area of Antarctica, with a size of 25m, weighing 280 tons, worth 19 million USD. Telescope has been officially put into operation in early March 2007.
Scientists from nine astronomical research organizations across the United States and foreign colleagues alternately work at the new telescope, with the primary goal of studying mysterious "dark energy". . Saturn and its surrounding space will be the first priority of observation by the current international astronomical exploratory groups.
Very powerful telescope observatory in Antarctica.
According to optimistic diagnostics, with this "ultra-sensitive" telescope, people are able to observe and study thousands of galaxies, if not tens of thousands of different galaxies belonging to aerial space. Infinite cylinder surrounds the solar system.
But first of all, experts will delve deeply into the actual state of the galaxy at "younger" stages, such as about 400,000 years ago, which corresponds to a time period with many constellations and banks. Ha has not formed yet.
If "dark energy" affects the development of spaces, science will easily discover them, along with satisfactory explanations of the existence of this incredibly difficult source of energy. .
During the latest lecture on cosmic origin on April 19 at the Institute of Technology in Pasadena City (California, USA), the famous British astrophysicist Stephen Hawking said, stepping in. The next breakthrough of world science relates to the dark side of the universe.
"The only defect of international cosmology today is that it is impossible to discover dark matter and dark energy, two fundamental properties that constitute the nature of the universe," said Professor S. Hawking.
"Dark matter and dark energy are the greatest mysteries of science. Although these two bodies cannot be observed directly with the naked eye, researchers have concluded that it exists due to gravity. The phenomenon of spiral galaxies demonstrates that, " Professor S. Hawking said before the end of the audience lecture.
