Galaxy-seeking robots to make 3D map of universe in the offing

Scientists have developed a prototype dubbed ProtoDESI, a scaled-down, 10-robot system that will help them achieve the pinpoint accuracy needed to home in on millions of galaxies, quasars and stars. (Reuters) Scientists have designed a prototype system to test for a planned array of 5,000 galaxy- seeking robots, which will provide the most detailed 3D map of the universe and probe the secrets of dark energy, which is accelerating the universe’s expansion.
