question 5

Multiple Choice

Telescopes like ALMA (working in the range 0.4-3.0 mm) and JWST (working in IR, in the range 0.6-28.5 micro-m) would help astronomers close a gap of observations that corresponds to the window

• A) z = 2-3, when the star formation rate peaked.
• B) z = 10-1,000, between the epochs of recombination and reionization.
• C) z = 0-0.5, when there was a big change in the relative fraction of irregular galaxies.
• D) z \(\gt\)1,100, to directly observe the inflation epoch.
• E) Such telescopes are actually designed to only explore planetary systems within the boundaries of our Milky Way.
