Such a comb can form a bridge spanning the huge frequency gap from microwaves to visible light: very
precise microwave measurements can, with an optical comb, produce equally exact data about light.

precise measurements of Cassini's trajectory by tracking the spacecraft's
microwave carrier signal with NASA's Deep Space Network.

Since then,
precise measurements using beams of
microwaves bounced off neighboring planets have rendered transit timings obsolete.
From the exact
measurement of the cosmic
microwave background (CMB) with the Planck space observatory and many other
measurements for example with the Hubble space telescope, the scientists were able to develop a

Since 2003, WMAP researchers have made more
precise energy

microwaves that allow them to look farther back in time.
Previously, the most
precise test of cosmological models came from
measurements with the European Space Agency's Planck satellite of what is known as the cosmic
microwave background (CMB)-- a faint glow in the sky emitted 380,000 years after the Big Bang.
Researchers also relied on
precise, space - based
