Abstract
- The signature of objects in the very early universe lies deep in the near infrared bands. The Primordial Explorer ( PRIME ) is a proposed NASA Explorer-class mission aimed at the z > 10 universe. PRIME will find the youngest and the most luminous galaxies and quasars, thereby enabling the determination of the epoch of galaxy formation and that of reionization of the intergalactic medium.
