•Over 10,000 exploding stars catalogued by groundbreaking Zwicky Transient Facility
76% Informative
Since 2012 , humanity has discovered almost 16,000 supernovas.
The Zwicky Transient Facility began operations in 2017 using the 48-inch telescope at Palomar Observatory .
It is responsible for almost two-thirds of these detections.
It's the largest and arguably most successful supernova surveyor to date.
Using two spectrographs at Palomar Observatory , the ZTF project can also classify its own supernovas.
Data from the project will continue to help astronomers answer questions about stellar life and death.
Data may even assist in solving the mystery of dark energy, the unknown force driving the expansion of the universe.
