Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The Herschel Space Observatory was specifically designed to detect radiation in the far infrared region of the electromagnetic spectrum, with wavelengths ranging from about 55 to 672 microns. It was able to observe objects that are too cold or too dust-obscured to be seen by other telescopes, such as young stars and galaxies, protoplanetary disks, and the cosmic microwave background.
