Seeing the origin of the universe will actually be possible with the Great Millimetric Telescope.
I´m pleased to talk about the latest mexican successful in science, which is called “Millimetric Telescope”. This project is currently being developed in a place known “La Negra Volcano”, which is located in Puebla State, very close to Veracruz, and the equipment for it has been set up at an altitude of 4,600 meters. It has been developed by the CONACyT (National Board of Science and Technology), National Institute of Astrophysics, Optics and Electronics and the University of Massachusetts, which are spliting expenses and responsibilities fifty – fifty.
The idea came up 15 years ago, and it was based on a needy for a new window through to which to study the universe, the developing teem have been working on it for 8 years. By enabling scientists to see greater distances, GMT will also, allow people to see back in time, into the distance past. The furthest back we migth see is the origin, which, according to scientific community, dates about 12 to 15 billion years ago, when the “Big Ban” ocurred and everything began to take place and shape.
As a conclusion, let me tell you that some scientists have even gone as far as to say that the GMT (Great Millimetric Telescope) project is likely the man’s landing on the moon or the launching of the Hubble Telescope, because it will herald a new era in scientific learning. The millimetric accuracy of the telescope picks up wave lengths of between one and three millimeters, and it makes the exploration possible.
I think, without a doubt, we have to be praud of Mexico for this reason at these moments !!!!
