This Telescope Is Basically a Cosmic Time Machine

The Vera C. Rubin Observatory just dropped its first pics and they’re wild—but that’s just the teaser. This new telescope is about to make a 10-year time-lapse of the entire southern sky, catching everything from exploding stars to rogue asteroids. In just 10 hours of testing, it already found 2,104 new asteroids! Imagine the discoveries when it’s fully up and running. Astronomers are calling it a ‘discovery machine’—and honestly, it’s about to change everything we know about space. #SpaceNews #Astronomy #VeraRubin #Science
