Herschel Mission.
Final check of Herschel???s three instruments which are complementary: each instrument is designed to study cosmic gas and dust in the universe, but at different temperatures and states. Thanks to the large range of wavelengths covered, they will be able to witness the entire process of star formation, from the earliest stages of condensation to the moment at which the proto-star emerges from its cocoon and is born.
