Summary
[edit]DescriptionSome Assembly Required.jpg |
English: This image of the week features the Telescope Mount Assembly of the 8.4-meter Simonyi Survey Telescope at Vera C. Rubin Observatory, currently under construction atop Cerro Pachón in Chile. This image shows the telescope frame prior to the mounting of the Top-End Assembly, a 28-metric tonne (31-ton) steel structure which was installed last month. Once the telescope is completed, the Top-End Assembly will support the telescope’s secondary mirror and the Rubin ObservatoryLSST Camera — the largest digital camera ever constructed for astronomy.
The Simonyi Telescope will carry out the Rubin Observatory Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST), a 10-year observing campaign that will address some of the most pressing questions about the structure and evolution of the Universe. |

JPEG file comment | Work on the Dome and the TMA is progressing in parallel on the summit, with preparations underway for some big upcoming activities. For the rest of February, the Dome team will be installing cladding and louvers while the work on the TMA mostly consists of small-scale inside assembly tasks. Meanwhile, arriving at the site are the pieces of the 500-ton crane needed to complete the major assembly of the TMA. The top-end of the TMA is scheduled to be transported to the upper platform on March 1st for its final assembly, after which it will be lifted into the Dome. |
