🌌 Rubin Observatory captures half a million galaxies in one shot 🌌

The Vera C. Rubin Observatory captured an image containing over 500,000 galaxies in the COSMOS field. This view covers a key patch of sky, far from the crowded Milky Way, allowing for clear observation. The image is a deep coadded result from observations made between April 2025 and January 2026. Repeated visits will track transient events like supernovae and flaring black holes in real time. Future phases will use difference imaging to issue millions of scientific alerts nightly.
