#8: Telescope captures images of the Whirlpool galaxy
We continue to fuel the fascination with the far reaches of space. The Lowell Observatory has released the first images taken with a 4k x 4k imaging sensor from e2v that equips its flagship Discovery Channel Telescope (DCT). Lowell is also investing in a Large Monolithic Imager (LMI), which will use e2v's 6k x 6k CCD231-C6 imaging sensor. The device was developed with funding from e2v and the National Science Foundation.
