Pan on Dust Lanes (UHD format)

This video pans across the intricate web of dust lanes and star clusters around the Trifid and Lagoon Nebulae, as imaged by NSF-DOE Vera C. Rubin Observatory. The exquisite detail in the structure of the nebulosity shown here demonstrates the exceptional quality of Rubin’s entire system — from its light-collecting power, to its sensitive camera, to its efficient data transfer and processing system.
