EUROPE: The US Department of Energy’s SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory has just approved the construction of the world’s largest and sharpest digital camera, which would be placed in the Large Synoptic Survey Telescope (LSST) that would help scientists understand the Universe in a better way.
The record breaking camera is expected to allow researchers gather more information about how the Universe was formed, view exploding stars and better understand how dark matter and dark energy work.
Researchers at SLAC, who is working with other universities and labs, like the DOE’s Brookhaven National Laboratory and Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, say that will take five years to properly build and test the new camera.
