Wow, that is so interesting! I really hope they find something previously unknown... likely something that hadn't been part of the plan, at all. I don't know enough about optics to understand how the Earth's atmosphere will play into this... but it strikes me this could be a new way to confirm exoplanets, as well. I mean, if it can spot a candle from 1000's of kms, why not a planet?

Yes, they of course hope to learn more, not only about dark matter, but about our galaxy as well.
