Den 14. juni, en m\u00e5ned efter opsendelsen fra Kourou i Fransk Guyana, fjernede ESA\u2019s Herschel-teleskop sit beskyttende \u2018objektivd\u00e6ksel\u2019. Selvom det stadig var under afpr\u00f8vning, besluttede missionsholdet at fremskynde Herschels f\u00f8rste observationer. Deres m\u00e5l var et af de smukkeste objekter p\u00e5 himlen \u2013 M51, ogs\u00e5 kendt som Hvirvelgalaksen.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Herschels dristige \u2018smugkig\u2019, der blev taget umiddelbart efter, at teleskopets afd\u00e6kning blev fjernet, overgik alles forventninger. Testbillederne af den ber\u00f8mte spiralgalakse blev taget i tre farver for at fremh\u00e6ve forskellige tr\u00e6k. De viste sig at v\u00e6re de skarpeste billeder af Whirlpool, der nogensinde er taget i infrar\u00f8dt lys, og viste tydeligt den overlegne ydeevne hos Herschel, det st\u00f8rste rumteleskop, der nogensinde er sendt ud i rummet. Og dette var blot et glimt af det, der ventede forude.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\" data-width=\"1024\" data-credit=\"ESA and the PACS Consortium\" data-detail-url=\"https:\/\/www.esa.int\/ESA_Multimedia\/Images\/2009\/06\/M51_Herschel_image_at_160_100_and_70_microns2\" data-licence=\"ESA Standard Licence\" data-licence-url=\"https:\/\/www.esa.int\/ESA_Multimedia\/Terms_and_conditions_of_use_of_images_and_videos_available_on_the_esa_website\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" style=\"max-width:100%;height:auto\" src=\"https:\/\/www.esa.int\/var\/esa\/storage\/images\/esa_multimedia\/images\/2009\/06\/m51_herschel_image_at_160_100_and_70_microns2\/17868525-2-eng-GB\/M51_Herschel_image_at_160_100_and_70_microns.jpg\" alt=\"M51 Herschel image at 160, 100 and 70 microns\"><figcaption>Herschel-billede af M51 ved 160, 100 og 70 mikron<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Whirlpool-galaksen, der blev opdaget i 1773, var den f\u00f8rste galakse, man nogensinde havde set med en spiralstruktur.
