Why the Isotech microK is Found on Mountain Tops
To discover Earth-like planets, astronomers use extreme precision radial velocity (EPRV) spectrographs, which can detect the tiny “wobbles” of stars caused by orbiting planets. These spectrographs, often placed on high-altitude observatories, demand exceptional stability: even a thousandth of a degree change in temperature can create false signals. The Isotech microK precision thermometer has become a trusted solution for monitoring and verifying this stability.
