美国多家天文研究机构将联手打造新一代全球功率最强的天文望远镜——“大型天空观测望远镜(LSST)”。该望远镜将被安置在海拔达2640米的智利阿塔卡马沙漠中。据专家们介绍,“大型天空观测望远镜”建成后,仅利用3个晚上的时间就能对整个看得见的天空进行全面扫描。也就是说,“大型天空观测望远镜”对天空的扫描观测速度比现有的其他现代化天文望远镜至少高出50 A number of astronomical research institutions in the United States will jointly create a new generation of the world’s most powerful telescope - “Large Sky Observation Telescope (LSST).” The telescope will be placed at 2,640 meters above sea level in Chile’s Atacama Desert. According to experts, after the completion of the “Large Sky Observation Telescope,” the entire visible sky will be fully scanned with only three night’s time. In other words, the “Sky Observation Telescope” scan the sky at least 50 times faster than other modern telescopes available
