The University of Washington was one of the founding partners in the effort to build the #RubinObservatory - and now that Rubin's first pictures of the cosmos have been released, UW astronomers are taking a victory lap and looking forward to the discoveries to come. https://www.geekwire.com/2025/university-of-washington-rubin-observatory/ #Space #LSST

The @VRubinObs has very recently updated its assessment of the known (and unknown) threats posed by large #satellite constellations on #LSST. The facility and survey remain "uniquely vulnerable to large numbers of bright satellites".
https://www.lsst.org/content/lsst-statement-regarding-increased-deployment-satellite-constellations
Rubin Observatory · Vera C. Rubin Observatory – Impact of Satellite ConstellationsRevised August 2024Executive SummaryThe rapid increase in commercial low-Earth orbit (LEO) satellites that reflect sunlight will affect some discoveries, data products, and resulting scientific output of the Vera C. Rubin Observatory Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST).Companies and countries are developing and launching hardware to LEO for telecommunications purposes. Many are also working to voluntarily mitigate the impacts on ground-based astronomy and sky observers worldwide.

Željko Ivezić (@VRubinObs) on the expected impacts of satellites on the #LSST: "How bad will this be for Rubin? It's a nuisance rather than a catastrophe". Loss of ~1% of the time = $15M cost. But if there are 100,000 sats, it could be 10% or more. #IAUGA2024 #Astronomy2024
Up Close With the Completed 3.2-Gigapixel #LSST #Camera
Engineers at the #SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory have completed work on the Legacy Survey of #Space and Time camera. The device is the world's largest digital camera and will be the centerpiece of a 10-year mission to map the night sky from the Vera C. Rubin #Observatory in #Chile.
One step closer to science-ready
Simulated Solar System objects are now part of Rubin's Data Preview 0 That's great news for Solar System scientists preparing to use #LSST—they can now test their analysis tools using the Rubin Science Platform (data.lsst.cloud)!
