Rubin Observatory This image combines 678 separate images taken by NSFDOE Vera C. Rubin Observatory in just over seven hours of observing time. Combining many images in this way clearly reveals otherwise faint or invisible details, such as the clouds of gas and dust that comprise the Trifid nebula (top) and the Lagoon nebula, which are several thousand light years away from Earth Credit: NSFDOE Vera C.
