Rubin Observatory/LSSTCam

The lab’s contributions to the national AI initiative are bolstered by its breakthrough scientific tools, unprecedented data and unique partnerships that help illuminate nature from the expansion of the universe to the motions of electrons.

The long-time collaborator of SLAC joins the list that recognizes the impact, innovation and achievement of the world’s most influential individuals.

This video breaks down how Rubin will run the Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST) and build a 10-year time lapse of the entire Southern sky.

NSF-DOE Rubin Observatory has issued its first scientific alerts, marking a historic milestone in astrophysics and kicking off a new era of dynamic, real-time observation of the night sky.

Salleo sees strength in the big picture and minute details of the people, tools and partnerships at SLAC.

Cosmologists Josh Frieman and Risa Wechsler look back on the Dark Energy Survey, sharing how it’s paving the way for Rubin Observatory to dig deeper into some of the universe’s darkest mysteries.

First peer-reviewed paper using data from SLAC-built LSST Camera identifies an asteroid, nearly the size of eight football fields, rotating every two minutes.

With survey operations set to begin this fall, the Rubin control room at SLAC will serve as a key hub for training and remote observing support for the NSF–DOE Vera C. Rubin Observatory.

His visit highlighted the breadth of our world-class research and the people and collaborations that make it possible. A key theme of the day: how SLAC and the National Labs are advancing AI to accelerate discovery.

New 3D, interactive visualization of planets and minor planets in our solar system lets you explore Rubin discoveries in real time.

On Monday, scientists and engineers reacted to the first images from the NSF–DOE Vera C. Rubin Observatory, marking a historic milestone.

Two decades ago, Stanford and SLAC took a gamble on an unproven telescope design. Now it's on the verge of paying off.
