An ambitious new project using the Hubble Space Telescope will allow astronomers to peer deep into the universe in five directions to document the early history of a star, galaxy formation and evolution. pratt and whitney The telescope Hubble Multi-Cycle Treasury program will image more than 250,000 pratt and whitney distant galaxies, to provide the first comprehensive view of the structure and assembly of galaxies over the first third of cosmic time. "This is an attempt pratt and whitney to make the best use of Hubble while it is at the top of their capabilities, providing major legacy data sets for the age of the heavenly bodies," said Sandra Faber, project leader at the University of California, Santa Cruz .
Other objectives are to look for key data on the earliest stages of the formation of supermassive black holes and find distant supernovae, which are important for understanding dark energy and the accelerating expansion of the universe.
These efforts rely on the powerful infrared camera on the Hubble Space Telescope and Wide Field Camera 3 and the advanced telekop cameras for Surveys (ACS). The proposal, which collects a large international team of collaborators were awarded a record 902 orbits of observing cosmic time as one of three major projects chosen for the Hubble Multi-Cycle Treasury Program. Track time, a total of about three and a half months will be deployed over the next two to three years.
Faber and her colleagues first data expected to be available by the end of the year. Data from this project will be available to the entire astronomy community with no proprietary period for Faber team to conduct its analysis. The likely result will be a race among teams of scientists to Mr. and announced the first results of OJ and aa new trove of data. Faber said the project will provide data on how rich you Mr. and keep astronomers busy for years to come. "We're very excited, not only for 900 orbits, but also about what this new camera can do. This is simply amazing pratt and whitney what he sees," Faber said. "This project is the largest event in my career, the culmination of three decades of working with large telescopes to study the evolution of the Galaxy s."
