First images from powerful new telescope released | BBC News


A powerful new telescope in Chile has released its first images, showing off its unprecedented ability to see into the depths of the universe.

In one picture, vast colourful gas and dust clouds swirl in a star-forming region 9,000 light years from Earth.

The Vera C Rubin observatory, home to the world’s most powerful digital camera, promises to transform our understanding of the universe.

It should detect killer asteroids in striking distance of Earth and map the Milky Way.

It will also answer crucial questions about dark matter, the mysterious substance that makes up most of our universe.
