'''Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI)''' is a scientific research instrument designed to conduct a comprehensive spectrographic survey of the universe. Installed on the Mayall Telescope at Kitt Peak National Observatory, DESI aims to map the large-scale structure of the cosmos to study dark energy, the mysterious component thought to be driving the accelerated expansion of the universe.{{cite web |url=https://www.desi.lbl.gov |title=Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument |accessdate=January 30, 2025}} | '''Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI)''' is a scientific research instrument designed to conduct a comprehensive spectrographic survey of the universe.
