But we&#8217;ll see the aftermath from it and learn about the beginning of the universe that way,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<p>The telescope&#8217;s infrared detectors will be able to distinguish 102 colors invisible to the human eye, yielding the most colorful, inclusive map ever made of the cosmos.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s like &#8220;looking at the universe through a set of rainbow-colored glasses,&#8221; said deputy project manager Beth Fabinsky of NASA&#8217;s Jet Propulsion Laboratory.<\/p>\n<p>To keep the infrared detectors super cold \u2014 minus 350 degrees Fahrenheit \u2014 Spherex has a unique look. It sports three aluminum-honeycomb cones, one inside the other, to protect from the sun and Earth&#8217;s heat, resembling a 10-foot shield collar for an ailing dog.<\/p>\n<p>Besides the telescope, <span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/moon-landers-2-privately-built-falcon-9-rocket\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">SpaceX&#8217;s Falcon rocket<\/a><\/span> provided a lift from Vandenberg Space Force Base for a quartet of NASA satellites called Punch.
