The mission of Vera C. Rubin Observatory: Use its telescope equipped with the largest digital camera in the world to survey the southern hemisphere sky—which is projected to amass a data catalog of around 500 petabytes! Read how the Rubin Observatory, funded by NSF and U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), is using its cloud-based platform, which uses notebooks and APIs that run on Google Cloud, and nightly alerts to deliver this massive data trove to researchers → https://goo.gle/3GUIg7S
💡 Great insight
A 500-petabyte data catalog from the world’s largest digital camera, paired with a Google Cloud-based platform, will fuel incredible research.
