Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument

An international team of scientists has produced the most detailed 3D map of the universe yet, with astrophysicists unveiling details of the first 7.5 million galaxies out of 35 million. The stunning image shows the cosmic web of galaxies going back billions of light-years. And, this is only the beginning of the project, which is seven months old.

Scientists have designed a prototype system to test for a planned array of 5,000 galaxy- seeking robots, which will provide the most detailed 3D map of the universe and probe the secrets of dark energy, which is accelerating the universe's expansion.
