Each of the 1,000 holes drilled in a single plug plate captures the light from a specific galaxy, quasar, or other target, and conveys its light to a sensitive spectrograph through an optical fiber. The plates are marked to indicate which holes belong to which bundles of the thousand optical fibers that carry the object's light.](/-/media/_/images/banner-images/2012/berkeley-boss-data-release-thumb.jpg?h=75&w=135&la=en&hash=689BA7D9369A1D49B08538C0909BB5EE49205C55066964C4653B062E153EA547)
