First year Planck All-sky released
Planck All-sky | Astronomy Blog
"Planck's main task is to study the echoes of the Big Bang; the cosmic microwave background (CMB) radiation. It builds on the successes of COBE and WMAP that have gone before but covers a much bigger range of frequencies (30-857 GHz) and will ultimately be more sensitive. The range of frequencies is very important as it helps to disentangle the many sources of microwave radiation in the Universe that detract from the cosmological signal that Planck is trying to observe." http://www.strudel.org.uk/blog/astro/000942.shtml |
