LSST Camera Pinhole Images

Taking the first 3,200-megapixel images was an important first test for the focal plane of the SLAC-built NSF–DOE Vera C. Rubin Observatory LSST Camera. To do so without a fully assembled camera, the SLAC team used a 150-micron pinhole to project images onto the focal plane.
