Summary
[edit]DescriptionLSST Camera's First Sensor Array Arrives (slac-37678179275 c3e79974d6 o).tiff |
English: Vera C. Rubin Observatory is currently under construction in Chile. The U.S. Department of Energy’s SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory is leading the construction of its Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST) camera – the largest digital camera ever built for astronomy.Major milestone: The first of 21 "science rafts" for the 3.2-gigapixel LSST camera from Brookhaven National Lab. The rafts are arrays of nine imaging sensors, or CCDs, each with 4K-by-4K pixels. The LSST camera will be the largest digital camera ever built for astronomy. It will provide researchers with the widest, deepest and fastest views of the night sky for unprecedented studies of the Milky Way, the solar system, dark matter, dark energy, and much more. SLAC is assembling and testing the camera from parts built by a large collaboration of labs and universities.LSST is funded by the National Science Foundation (NSF), the Department of Energy (DOE) Office of Science, and private funding raised by the LSST Corporation.
