Go, Baby, Go !
NASA has launched a new super-sensitive infrared telescope that will enable scientists to better understand the evolution of the universe. SIRTF (Space Infrared Telescope Facility) infrared radiation will allow it to detect light below the visible light spectrum, and take pictures of the oldest, darkest, coldest and most dust-obscured objects in the farthest corners of the universe. ...[which] will show the universe as it was billions of years ago.
The SIRTF telescope joins the Hubble and Chandra telescopes in rounding out a trio of NASA observatories in orbit around Earth.
Good on ya.
