Funded Activity Summary
Caught in the act: an unparalleled view of galaxy evolution. How do galaxies, like our own Milky Way, form? Using a new survey of the nearby cosmos, this project will search for the signatures of galactic cannibalism, the disrupted bodies of smaller galaxies, and use this archaeology to piece together the formation history. This project will also reveal the presence of local dark matter, whose action has shaped our own formation.Funded Activity Details
