“With the first alerts from NSF-DOE @VRubinObs, we are witnessing the start of a new era in discovery — one in which the night sky becomes a living stream of data, accessible to researchers everywhere in near real time. This capability transforms how we study a dynamic universe & reflects the power of sustained nat'l investment in cutting-edge research infrastructure. Rubin will not simply observe change in the cosmos — it will empower the scientific community to better see & understand the universe around us,” said Brian Stone, performing the duties of the NSF director.
