What is #ARRAKIHS?
🟣ARRAKIHS is the first @esa's Science Programme mission led from Spain, specifically from @IFCA_CSIC_UC
🔍Focus on imaging faint galaxies nearby, ARRAKIHS aims to provide crucial measurements for testing open questions in cosmology. 🌌

#LecturasDeVeranoESA 📖- En junio, la @esa aprobaba la misión Arrakihs para estudiar la historia de las galaxias. Con su lanzamiento previsto para finales de 2030, Arrakihs captará la tenue luz de los halos de galaxias cercanas. Al revelar lo invisible, permitirá reconstruir la historia cósmica y entender cómo se forman y evolucionan galaxias como la nuestra.

How do we prepare a space mission before it observes the Universe? 🤔
With simulations.
ARTEMIS simulations + machine learning help predict the properties of faint galaxy halos, preparing us for future ARRAKIHS observations 🌌

✨How many galaxies should #ARRAKIHS observe?
Simulations suggest ~80–84 gives a strong chance of capturing the diverse range of stellar halos needed for significant science, a smart balance of ambition and feasibility 🚀🌌
