However, the majority of the Universe\u2019s secrets are hidden from view, buried within the furthest reaches of light\u2019s spectrum and other electromagnetic radiation. For astronomers, using telescopes to observe such extreme forms of radiation allows them to get a far more detailed view of the Universe. In the near future, that view will come to life, courtesy of a complex array of instruments currently being built by Russia in collaboration with Spain, Germany, and Japan. Once completed, the Spektr-UF, also known as the World Space Observatory\u2013Ultraviolet (WSO-UV), will scan the Universe\u2019s ultraviolet (UV) wavelength signals to see what it can find.
