15 terabytes per night

The LSST camera is scheduled to be brought to Chile in early 2023. There she completes every 3 days panoramic shot Southern starry sky. and for the next ten years, resulting in the largest time-lapse image of the universe. a data volume of 15 terabytes To meet

recording should help motion of celestial bodies To understand better. Researchers also expect useful information about a wide variety of topics. event of the universe,

highly sensitive to light

LSST images are also considered so far unseen things visible in the galaxy. The camera must be sensitive enough to light that you can burning candle still in thousands of kilometers away can recognize. is for commissioning 2024 Planned.
