Have you noticed Venus shining high in the west for the last several weeks? We have a special edition of #WallpaperWednesday, because Earth's nearest neighbor has also been putting on quite the show above Rubin Observatory!

Residing in the heart of a dwarf galaxy four billion light years away is a mysterious cosmological object producing bursts of energy that only last a few milliseconds. Read more in our latest press release bit.ly/3NTT2fB Image credit: NSF/GBO/P.Vosteen.
