“Voyager
1, launched in 1977 to explore the outer planets, has passed into a
new region on its way out of the solar system, scientists said on
Wednesday.
“Closer
scrutiny of radiation left over from the creation of the universe
shows the Big Bang took place about 13.8 billion years ago, 100
million years earlier than previous estimates, scientists said on
Thursday.
The findings are among the first
results from analysis of data collected by the European Space
Agency's Planck spacecraft, which is providing the most detailed look
to date at the remnant microwave radiation that permeates the
universe.”Follow us on Twitter @Khakjaan
