The new German X-ray telescope managed in less than two years to discover more than 3 million new objects in the universe.
This new telescope is called eROSITA and started operating in 2019. A database is capable of imaging the entire universe.
This telescope is located in the space between the Earth and the Sun from where it can take better images using its powerful instruments.
The mission is led by the German Max Planck Institute. Its purpose is to shed light on unknown aspects of space.
Other older X-ray telescopes could only study small parts of the sky in detail. But this telescope can create high-resolution images of huge bodies in space. It is still capable of studying objects such as black holes that do not reflect light, so far it has been very difficult to study galaxies that are far away.
Since October 2019, he has completed 3 studies of the universe. During this time 3 times more space has been discovered than in the last 50 years of space exploration. However, its mission will be completed in 2023 and then it will be used for other research.
It is worth mentioning that he was able to study galaxies that are 7 billion light years away from Earth.
These researches will even help to better understand the creation of the universe.
