The Vera C. Rubin Observatory is ready to transform our understanding of the cosmos
73% Informative
The Vera C. Rubin Observatory is poised to expand our understanding of just about every corner of the universe.
It will capture rapidly changing events, including stellar explosions called supernovas , the evisceration of stars by black holes, and the whiz of asteroids overhead.
In a single exposure, Rubin will capture 100,000 galaxies, the majority invisible to other instruments.
The facility will also catalogue around 20 billion previously unknown galaxies.
Rubin is expected to increase the number of known asteroids and comets by a factor of 10 to 100 .
It will catalogue 40,000 new small icy bodies in the Kuiper Belt , a largely unexplored region beyond Neptune where many comets are born.
The facility will also look far outside the Milky Way, cataloguing around 20 billion previously unknown galaxies.
