Andrzej Pigulski (Uni.Wroclaw)
Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST)
Streszczenie:
The Rubin Observatory is under construction on Cerro Pachon in
northern Chile and will soon be completed. During the ten-year Legacy
Survey of Space and Time (LSST) project, the 8.4-m Simonyi Survey
Telescope will take images of billions of objects in six colours. The
survey, which will cover more than half the sky, will also record the
variability of these sources. In my talk, I will present the history of
the project, details of the telescope's construction and the main
scientific goals to be achieved with the survey data.
