Checking Without a Ruler: How to Confirm Planck's Calibration Without Trusting the Dust Model
Eight sky maps taken by different detectors of the Planck telescope resemble eight road atlases of the same city drawn by different cartographers. Each atlas is rotated by its own angle: one cartographer held the tablet slightly tilted, another slightly turned. If you overlay the atlases, the streets won't align. But if you know how each atlas is rotated, you can align them perfectly.
