The European Physical Society awarded a top prize to the teams behind the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope, studying pulsars, supermassive black holes, neutron stars, etc.

SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory unveiled the first photos from the Vera C. Rubin Observatory’s Legacy Survey of Space and Time

Two decades ago, Stanford & SLAC took a gamble on an unproven telescope design with no funding, no home, and no official backing. Now, with first images in hand, it's paying off!

The game-changing Vera C. Rubin Observatory will collect more astronomical data in its first year than all other telescopes combined.

Over the next ten years, Rubin Observatory will create a movie of the night sky using the largest camera ever built, scanning the sky to create a time-lapse of the Universe.

At the top of Cerro Pachón in northern Chile, the NSF–DOE Vera C. Rubin Observatory is nearing completion!

On-sky engineering tests have begun at NSF–DOE Rubin Observatory. After installing the LSST Camera, we turned the telescope to the sky, a moment 20 years in the making.

Using the largest digital camera in the world, Rubin Observatory will soon be ready to capture more data than any other observatory in history.

The telescope will catalogue billions of new objects and produce a new map of the entire night sky every three days with the largest digital camera ever made.
