Researchers suggest small satellite to detect 13.5 billion-year-old signals
A team of British experts has introduced a concept for a compact, suitcase-sized craft named CosmoCube, designed to investigate the universe prior to the emergence of the earliest stars. The satellite would circle the Moon, utilizing the lunar far side to shield itself from terrestrial radio noise. Its mission is to hunt for signals sent out by neutral hydrogen more than 13.5 billion years in the past. These findings could shed light on the state of the cosmos during its dark ages and provide insights into the nature of dark matter.
