The European Space Agency (ESA) is seeking a slot as the third partner in the Joint Dark Energy Mission (JDEM), alongside two US agencies already involved — NASA and the Department of Energy (DoE). A deal would boost the budget as well as the flight chances for the space telescope, which, launched sometime next decade, would peer beyond the Milky Way to pin down the mysterious force which is accelerating the universe's expansion.
