Building a Giant 2D Map of the Universe to Prepare for the Largest 3D Map Nearly 200 researchers pitched in to gather, process, and stitch together images for half of the sky to prepare for the start of the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument’s observations January 13, 2021 82 Shares This video describes the monumental effort that went into constructing a 2D map of the universe to prepare for the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument, which will produce the largest-ever 3D map of the universe. The final data release for the preparation of this 2D map, known as Data Release 9 or DR9, was dis...

DOE/Argonne National Laboratory Argonne scientists and research facilities have made a difference in the fight against COVID-19 in the year since the first gene sequence for the virus was published. Sunday, Jan. 10, will mark one year since the first gene sequence for the virus that causes COVID-19 was published, igniting the quest for vaccines and treatments. Ten days later, the first case of the virus was confirmed in the United States. The U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Argonne National Laboratory pivoted immediately to join the global fight against the pandemic, turning our powe...
