Planck research encompasses the entire universe in both space and time â a wealth of discovery that saw the Planck collaboration earn the 2018 Gruber Prize in cosmology. Credit: ESA, Planck Collaboration However, there is another contender in this game that can produce a similar effect: interstellar dust in our Galaxy, the Milky Way. The ancient light, called the cosmic microwave background, was imprinted on the sky when the universe was 370,000 years old. Planck will open a new era in our under-standing of the Universe and of its astrophysi-cal structures (Planck Collaboration 2006). A new fingerprint-like map from the Planck Space Telescope reveals the magnetic field lines of the Milky Way galaxy, allowing astronomers to study the structure of the magnetic field and better understand the process of star formation.

Planck has accurately determined the age of the Universe to be 13.82 billion years - slightly older than WMAP's measurement of 13.77 billion years. Click to expand. A large-scale project involving close collaboration with ESA and the global scientific community, and one of the largest space industry teams ever assembled On May 14, 2009 - Just ten years ago today, an Ariane 5 rocket lifted off from the Guiana Space Center in Kourou, French Guiana, with two spacecraft, Herschel and Planck.

Another method is to look at the cosmic microwave background.

Fig. The image above is from the Planck satellite, now defunct, that was launched by the European Space Agency (ESA) in May 2005, along with the Herschel Space Observatory, which also recently ended its mission. The catalogue contains 1227 entries, making it over six times the size of the Planck Early SZ (ESZ) sample and the largest SZ-selected catalogue to date.

On behalf of ESA and the Planck Scientific Collaboration, we present an overview of the European Space Agency's Planck mission, its scientific objectives and the main elements of its technical design. More up-to-date results are available on the ESA Planck website.

ESA/Planck Collaboration. The current programmatic status of Planck within ESA's Scientific Programme, implementation plans, and near-term milestones are also outlined. The Planck collaboration has studied 25 pairs of clusters of galaxies, but only found a clear signal compatible with an intercluster filament for two of these pairs: A399-A401 and A3391-A3395. Title: The Story of Our Universe; The European Space Agency's Planck satellite, dedicated to studying the early Universe and its subsequent evolution, was launched 14 May 2009 and has been scanning the microwave and submillimetre sky continuously since 12 August 2009.

We describe the all-sky Planck catalogue of clusters and cluster candidates derived from Sunyaev--Zeldovich (SZ) effect detections using the first 15.5 months of Planck satellite observations. Planck is a European Space Agency mission, with significant participation from NASA. PR2 is described in the Planck 2015 Release Explanatory Supplement which is available via the ESA Planck Legacy Archive wiki page. 3: The interaction between interstellar dust in the Milky Way and the structure of our Galaxy's magnetic field, as detected by ESA s Planck satellite over the entire sky. A collection of intriguing images based on data from ESAâs Herschel and Planck space telescopes show the influence of magnetic fields on the clouds of gas and dust where stars are forming. The Explanatory Supplement has been produced by the Planck Collaboration. The Explanatory Supplement is a reference text accompanying the public data products which result from the European Space Agencyâs Planck mission, and includes descriptions of all the products available via the Planck Legacy Archive. Two Cosmic Microwave Background anomalies hinted at by the Planck observatory's predecessor, NASA's WMAP, are confirmed in new high-precision data revealed on March 21, 2013.
