While utilizing a lightweight radio antenna to listen for the universe’s earliest echoes, CosmoCube would also constantly reassess its location by alternating between referencing both onboard data and space around it. These consistent double-checks will help isolate any internal noise that could be confused with cosmic signals. Following its potential mission, astronomers would use mathematical models to remove even more excess foreground noise like galactic radio signals, as well as any lingering false flags.
