Researchers one step closer to developing Canada’s next space telescope
Researchers at Western University and Bishop’s University are the recipients of $1.1 million to develop what could become Canada’s next space telescope mission.
The funding from the Canadian Space Agency will support the development of a telescope prototype by Stanimir Metchev, Canada Research Chair in Extrasolar Planets at Western’s Institute for Earth and Space Exploration, and Jason Rowe, Canada Research Chair in Exoplanetary Astrophysics in Bishop’s department of physics and astronomy.
If the project goes as planned, the Photometric Observations of Extrasolar Transits mission (POET as it is provisionally titled) could be in orbit, characterizing known extrasolar planets, or perhaps even discovering Earth-like exoplanets, by 2026. ....
