The Vera C. Rubin Observatory in Chile is set to unveil its first images after more than 20 years in the making. This astronomical facility boasts the largest digital camera ever built by humans, and the US National Science Foundation and Department of Energy will reveal the telescope’s first observations on 23 June 2025 at 15:00 UTC. This marks the beginning of a new era in studying the skies.

Excitingly, live watch parties will be held worldwide to celebrate this momentous occasion, with the entire event being livestreamed on YouTube. The Rubin Observatory, first proposed in 2001, is expected to revolutionize astronomical research. The observatory telescope will conduct a 10-year survey of the southern sky known as the Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST) in near-ultraviolet, optical, and near-infrared wavelengths. This survey will capture the entire sky every few days, creating a massive timelapse of the Universe.

With a 3,200-megapixel camera, Rubin will record each section of the sky approximately 800 times, generating around 20 terabytes of data every 24 hours. Over the course of the LSST, it is projected to collect approximately 60 petabytes of raw image data, doubling the data collected by the Murchison Widefield Array during the same period.

The observatory’s cutting-edge data transfer, processing, and storage facilities are essential to manage this immense amount of data. Astronomers are eagerly anticipating the discoveries that Rubin will unveil, with expectations that it will provide insights into the Universe and answer questions that have yet to be imagined.

According to the NSF and DOE, Rubin’s capabilities, including its speed, wide field of view, and sensitive camera, push the boundaries of what a telescope can achieve. It can detect real-time changes in the sky and capture faint or distant objects on an unprecedented scale, enabling the observation of exceedingly rare events for the first time.
