EUSO (Extreme Universe Space Observatory)

The Extreme Universe Space Observatory (EUSO) is a scientific project designed to study high-energy cosmic particles known as ultra-high-energy cosmic rays. Launched into space, it uses advanced detectors to observe these particles as they enter the Earth's atmosphere and produce visible light when they collide with air molecules. By analyzing this light, EUSO helps scientists understand the origins and properties of these energetic particles, which may come from sources like supernovae or black holes. Ultimately, EUSO aims to deepen our knowledge of the universe and its most extreme phenomena.
