What is the use of the CHEOPS satellite launched by the European Space Agency?

In December last year, Europe launched a satellite called cheops. This satellite is the first detection satellite used to detect the overall situation of human stars and planets. It detects the conditions from the earth to The volume density and overall situation of approximately all planets within the Pluto range.

Because according to European scientists, humans now only know that there are so many stars, but they do not know the specific conditions of these stars. Humans have conducted certain detections of the eight planets in the solar system, but among the eight planets, It is still unclear what the outer planets are like. In order to better immigrate, ensure their own reproduction, and avoid cosmic risks, humans must find future planets suitable for human survival. Therefore, this satellite is planned to be launched in the future. Within the range from the Earth to Pluto, we will search for 100 planets with conditions similar to the Earth, and conduct overall environment detection. The detection time depends on the size of the planet.

Human beings have been developing technological conditions for their own interstellar colonization, but the speed and carrying capacity of human aircraft are still far from reaching the purpose of interstellar navigation. We cannot fly spacecraft in space, like It is so convenient for us to drive a car on land, and the carrying volume is also very limited, so the current detection of these planets, satellites and other basic information is only to lay a certain foundation for further human exploration in the future. At least we know some basic data, such as this planet These satellites have various information such as their size, density and gravity, overall magnetic field, atmosphere, etc.

Human beings have never stopped exploring the unknown, because in ancient times people began to use astronomical telescopes to measure the universe through calculations. Although some concepts of the universe were incorrect at that time, people's desire to explore has never changed, and it remains the same today. Human exploration of the universe has only been around for fifty or sixty years since the beginning of modern aviation, but in this era Within a long time, we now have a basic understanding of the universe. If we give humans a longer time, they can find more secrets about the universe.
