Cosmic Anisotropy Telescope, Radio telescope near Cambridge, Great Britain
The Cosmic Anisotropy Telescope detects microwave signals from deep space to measure temperature variations in cosmic background radiation.
The telescope began operations in the early 2000s as part of global scientific efforts to study radiation patterns from the Big Bang.
International research teams gather at this facility to collect data about the early formation and evolution of the universe.
Scientists access the telescope's extensive datasets through digital archives to conduct research on cosmic microwave background radiation patterns.
The instrument contributes to mapping temperature fluctuations across the sky, revealing details about matter distribution after the Big Bang.
