About Observational Technology:
- International researchers, including an Indian team led by Shadab Alam from the Tata Institute of Fundamental Research, utilise observations from the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI).
- DESI, mounted on the Mayall 4-Meter Telescope in Arizona, captures light from 5,000 galaxies simultaneously, allowing for detailed mapping.
