Slide BackgroundQUVIKThe first Czech space telescope• Kilonovae and other astronomy• Observations in UV spectra• Science and technology missions• The QUVIK project was selected by the Czech Ministry of Transport and ESA as an "ambitious Czech mission." Mission The QUVIK (Quick Ultra-Violet Kilonovae surveyor) project aims to develop the first Czech space telescope optimised for the ultraviolet part of the spectrum. The telescope's primary goal is to observe so-called kilonovae, which result from mergers of neutron stars. The observations will provide critical information about the formation of elements heavier than iron during these mergers. The telescope will also enable observations of hot stars, supernovae, gamma-ray bursts, star clusters, and galactic nuclei where supermassive black holes rip apart stars at the galaxy's centre.
