Nasa Map Of The Universe. Welcome to NASAs Eyes a way for you to learn about your home planet our solar system the universe beyond and the spacecraft exploring them. NASAgov brings you the latest images videos and news from Americas space agency.
The universe began with an unimaginably enormous density and temperature. By analyzing the light patterns in this map scientists are fine tuning what we know about the universe including its origins fate and basic components. In a collaborative effort between NASA Arizona s Kitt Peak National Observatory and Chile s Cerro Tololo Inter-American Observatory 200 researchers and observers have managed to splice together the widest most detailed range of telescopic images ever of the stars above our heads.
Cosmology is the scientific study of the large scale properties of the universe as a whole.
NASA After nine years of scanning the sky the Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe WMAP space mission has concluded its observations of the cosmic microwave background the oldest light in the universe. A mega space-collaboration project has successfully produced the largest map of the universe - ever. WMAPs baby picture of the universe maps the afterglow of the hot young universe at a time when it was only 375000 years old when it was a tiny fraction of its current age of 1377 billion years. This full-sky map from the Planck mission shows matter between Earth and the edge of the observable universe.
