Read the below statements: 1. NASA launched a space telescope, SPHEREx, to study the universe's 'cosmic glow'. 2. The Major Atmospheric Cherenkov Experiment (MACE) telescope was inaugurated at Hanle, Ladakh. Which of the above statements is/are correct?
Statement 1 and 2 both
The question tests two current-affairs statements about recent astronomy developments.
SPHEREx (Spectro-Photometer for the History of the Universe, Epoch of Reionization and Ices Explorer) is a NASA space telescope launched to survey the whole sky and study the faint collective 'cosmic glow' of all galaxies, so Statement 1 is correct.
The Major Atmospheric Cherenkov Experiment (MACE) is a gamma-ray telescope inaugurated at Hanle in Ladakh, one of the highest-altitude observatories of its kind in the world, so Statement 2 is also correct.
Both instruments are real and correctly described in the statements, so neither can be rejected.
The options limiting correctness to only one statement, or to neither, are therefore ruled out.
Hence the answer is Statement 1 and 2 both.
