World's Largest Digital Camera Takes 3200 Megapixel Photos! (LSST) Large Synoptic Survey Telescope
The Large Synoptic Survey Telescope (LSST) is a revolutionary telescope designed to study the universe and help us understand its mysteries. It is currently under construction and is expected to begin scientific operations in 2023. The LSST will be one of the most powerful telescopes in the world, capable of capturing images of the entire visible sky every few nights. The LSST will be located in Chile, at an altitude of 8,800 feet in the foothills of the Andes Mountains. It will have an 8.4-meter primary mirror, making it one of the largest telescopes in the world. The telescope's wide field of view and the high resolution will allow it to capture unprecedented images of the night sky.
