[RUBIN BEHIND THE SCENES TOUR!] Above the Clouds: Episode 2 (Vera C. Rubin Observatory)

Astraveo Above the Clouds: Episode 2. A behind the scenes tour of the Vera C. Rubin Observatory.

Join us for an exclusive behind-the-scenes tour of the Vera C. Rubin Observatory, home of the groundbreaking Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST). Located on Cerro Pachón in Chile, this next-generation facility will transform our understanding of the universe, capturing detailed images of the entire southern sky every few nights with its 3.2-gigapixel camera — the largest digital camera ever built for astronomy.

In this video, we walk through the observatory’s innovative design, including its 8.4-meter Simonyi Survey Telescope, the massive camera assembly, and the advanced data processing pipeline that will produce tens of terabytes of astronomical data every night. Learn how Rubin Observatory will help scientists probe dark energy, dark matter, transient phenomena, asteroids, and more.

Whether you're an astronomy enthusiast, a space nerd, or a student researching the Rubin Observatory, this video delivers a full, high-resolution look at one of the most ambitious scientific projects of the 21st century.
