Meet our Solar System's newest dwarf planet candidate: 2026 ED138! Orbiting past Pluto, scientists found it in NSF–DOE Rubin Observatory data from earlier in 2026. Early analysis suggests it's 600–1500 km across, one of the largest found past Neptune! 🔗 rubinobservatory.org/news/rubin-fir…

We regret to inform you that space is extremely large🌌 We've looked into making it smaller. Unfortunately….we can't. To address this issue, the NSF–DOE Rubin Observatory will spend the next 10 years repeatedly surveying the entire southern sky. We thank you for your patience.

We're feeling nostalgic 🥹 This is a #ThrowbackThursday to the night of 15 April 2025. Decades of planning and years of building led to this moment, when our team finally saw the very first image of the night sky captured by the LSST Camera🔭✨

We need your help! Galaxies come in all kinds of shapes and sizes. They can be grand spirals, smooth ellipticals, irregular shapes, and everything in between. But computers aren't always good at identifying these kinds of shapes. That's where you come in!

We're back on sky!🌌🔭 After time off-sky for planned maintenance and restoration efforts following recent historic storms in Chile, NSF–DOE Rubin Observatory has resumed observations for the Legacy Survey of Space and Time! Onward with the ultimate movie of the cosmos!🎬✨
