It also observed in nine frequency bands rather than WMAP's five, with the goal of improving the astrophysical foreground models. Planck had a higher resolution and sensitivity than WMAP, allowing it to probe the power spectrum of the CMB to much smaller scales (×3). studies of the Solar System, including planets, asteroids, comets and the zodiacal light.observations of the Milky Way, including the interstellar medium, distributed synchrotron emission and measurements of the Galactic magnetic field, and.observations of bright extragalactic radio ( active galactic nuclei) and infrared (dusty galaxy) sources,.observations of the gravitational lensing of the CMB, as well as the integrated Sachs–Wolfe effect,.creation of a catalogue of galaxy clusters through the Sunyaev–Zel'dovich effect,.high resolution detections of both the total intensity and polarization of primordial CMB anisotropies,.The mission had a wide variety of scientific aims, including: The observatory's legacy continues to inspire future generations of researchers and scientists, and its findings will undoubtedly shape our understanding of the Universe for years to come. Planck's observations helped determine the age of the universe, the average density of ordinary matter and dark matter in the Universe, and other important characteristics of the cosmos. The mission was a remarkable success and provided the most precise measurements of several key cosmological parameters. The final deactivation command was sent to Planck in October 2013. The final papers by the Planck team were released in July 2018, marking the end of the mission.Īt the end of its mission, Planck was put into a heliocentric graveyard orbit and passivated to prevent it from endangering any future missions. In February 2015, an expanded release was published, which included polarization data. The map was of exceptional quality and allowed researchers to measure temperature variations in the CMB with unprecedented accuracy. On 21 March 2013, the Planck team released its first all-sky map of the cosmic microwave background. By February 2010, it had successfully started a second all-sky survey. The observatory was launched in May 2009 and reached the Earth/Sun L2 point by July 2009. The project started in 1996, and it was later renamed in honor of the German physicist Max Planck (1858–1947), who is widely regarded as the originator of quantum theory by deriving the formula for black-body radiation.īuilt at the Cannes Mandelieu Space Center by Thales Alenia Space, Planck was created as a medium-sized mission for ESA's Horizon 2000 long-term scientific program. Planck was initially called COBRAS/SAMBA, which stands for the Cosmic Background Radiation Anisotropy Satellite/Satellite for Measurement of Background Anisotropies. The mission provided significant insights into the composition and evolution of the Universe, shedding light on the fundamental physics that governs the cosmos. One of its key objectives was to test theories of the early Universe and the origin of cosmic structure. The Planck observatory was a major source of information relevant to several cosmological and astrophysical issues. The mission was highly successful and substantially improved upon observations made by the NASA Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe (WMAP). It was an ambitious project that aimed to map the anisotropies of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) at microwave and infrared frequencies, with high sensitivity and small angular resolution. Planck was a space observatory operated by the European Space Agency (ESA) from 2009 to 2013.
