| The objective of the Eros experiment is the
detection of dark matter in the universe.
The astrophysicists think that there
are
huge amounts of matter besides the
matter
concentrated in the stars and black
holes.
Its detection would help to have a
more precise
theory about origin and evolution of
the
universe. Every night, the sky is scanned
and a large number of pictures are
collected.
Those images are entered into HPSS.
Over
time, all pictures of one spot in the
sky
are analyzed to detect changes. |
