Daniel Pomarède<p>A modest space telescope with an innovative design is about to search for traces of a key moment in cosmic history: the first tiny fraction of the first second following the Big Bang.</p><p><a href="https://www.science.org/content/article/modest-telescope-big-plans-spherex-will-probe-cosmic-inflation-after-big-bang" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">science.org/content/article/mo</span><span class="invisible">dest-telescope-big-plans-spherex-will-probe-cosmic-inflation-after-big-bang</span></a></p><p><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Cosmology" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Cosmology</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/SPHEREx" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SPHEREx</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Astrodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Astrodon</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/science" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>science</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/news" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>news</span></a></p>
Flipboard Science Desk<p>As soon as the end of February, NASA and the Jet Propulsion Laboratory will launch a new telescope into orbit around the Earth called SPHEREx. The funnel-shaped telescope weighs about as much as a grand piano and has a larger field of vision than other telescopes like Hubble and the JWST. <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://flipboard.com/@npr" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>npr</span></a></span> has more:</p><p><a href="https://flip.it/cIR-nB" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">flip.it/cIR-nB</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p><p><a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/Science" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Science</span></a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/NASA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>NASA</span></a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/Space" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Space</span></a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/JWST" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>JWST</span></a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/Hubble" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Hubble</span></a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/SPHEREx" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SPHEREx</span></a></p>
