CZThe article discusses the launch of the Vera C. Rubin Observatory in Chile, which features an advanced telescope capable of capturing detailed images of the night sky. Czech scientists, represented by director Michael Prouza, are involved in analyzing the collected data to study cosmic phenomena such as supernova explosions and potential discoveries of thousands or even millions of asteroids in our solar system. The telescope uses the largest digital camera available and has a large main mirror that allows it to collect more light and capture fainter objects. The observatory began collecting data in spring 2024 and was officially launched in June 2025 during a global event. It faced several technical challenges, including cooling issues with the mirror and testing against earthquakes, but has now entered full operation after delays. The observatory is located at high altitude on Cerro Pachón in northern Chile due to ideal observational conditions.
