The map, which was created around 2,000 years ago, has spent centuries hidden under a medieval manuscript. It is thought to be the work of famous Greek astronomer Hipparchus, who lived from around 190 to 120BC - long before the invention of the telescope. Four years ago, in 2022, analysis of a 6th century monastery text revealed it could contain the ancient star map underneath. Now, experts at the SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory in California are using X-rays to bring the ancient cosmos back to life.
