MACE in Ladakh opens its one-of-a-kind eye to cosmic gamma rays

MACE’s main goal is to study gamma rays with more than 20 billion eV of energy. The telescope can examine high-energy gamma rays emitted beyond the Milky Way. Other potential astrophysical targets include pulsars, blazars, and gamma-ray bursts. Scientists will also use MACE to explore one class of hypothetical dark-matter particles
