Close-up: Dust Lanes of Sagittarius | Vera C. Rubin Observatory
This video pans across the intricate web of dust lanes and star clusters around the Trifid and Lagoon Nebulae, as imaged by the National Science Foundation–Department of Energy Vera C. Rubin Observatory. The exquisite detail in the structure of the nebulosity shown here demonstrates the exceptional quality of Rubin’s entire system—from its light-collecting power, to its sensitive camera, to its efficient data transfer and processing system.
This image was captured by the Rubin Observatory using the 3200-megapixel LSST Camera—the largest digital camera in the world. Rubin Observatory will scan the sky every night for 10 years, creating an ultra-wide, ultra-high-definition, time-lapse record of our Universe.
