#VeraRubin #Telescope Begins Surveying Our Cosmos, the widest, deepest survey yet of the southern sky.
Telescope will drink in galaxies and stars, creating record of how objects streak, pulse and explode in our solar system and beyond.
#Astronomers expect data, known as Legacy Survey of Space and Time, to revolutionize knowledge of galaxy’s birth, invisible matter permeating cosmos, what shaped the universe into the structure it has today and more.

To learn more about Caroline (and briefly about her mom) & comets, check out this week's episode here: https://starrytimepodcast.podbean.com/e/asterism-caroline-herschel-and-comets/
