Vera C Rubin Observatory

The Vera C. Rubin Observatory is beginning operations, and it represents a major shift in how astronomy observes the universe. Instead of taking isolated snapshots, Rubin will repeatedly scan the same regions of the sky for ten years, creating a true time-lapse record of cosmic change. This approach allows scientists to track what persists, what fades, and what evolves — from asteroids and supernovae to the large-scale structure shaped by dark matter and dark energy. Rubin isn’t just about seeing farther once; it’s about watching reality unfold over time.

This video is part of the Carroll Wells Gradient (CWG) project, which explores how persistence, information, and structure shape the universe across scales.
