The Universe is dying. All across the cosmos for the last 10 billion years galaxies have been continuously killed, and we still don't know why. Today the Universe is littered with dead galaxies, and their distribution is correlated with location (environment). This suggests that location is one of the prime suspects in this galactic whodunit. However, previous observations and techniques have restricted us to only measuring galaxy environments in the nearby Universe, inhibiting our ability to identify when, where and why they are killed. This project aims to use my new state-of-the-art Australian survey and innovative analysis techniques to measure the smoking gun factors that kill galaxies in the distant Universe for the very first time.

宇宙正在消亡。在过去的一百亿年里，整个宇宙的星系不断被消灭，而我们仍然不知道为什么。如今，宇宙中散布着死亡星系，它们的分布与位置（环境）相关。这表明该地点是这部银河侦探小说中的主要嫌疑人之一。然而，之前的观测和技术限制了我们只能测量附近宇宙中的星系环境，从而限制了我们识别它们何时、何地以及为何被杀死的能力。该项目旨在利用我在澳大利亚最新的最先进的调查和创新的分析技术来首次测量杀死遥远宇宙中星系的确凿证据。
