We have first light on our Large Aperture Telescope! www.simonsfoundation.org/2025/03/17/s...
After installing our mirrors over the last few weeks, we have started looking at the sky. We are still tuning the telescope, but we can already make maps of objects in the sky, like Mars. ☄️🔭🧪

As we are putting the finishing touches on our Large Aperture Telescope 🔭, now might be a good time to explain what science goals it serves. The problem is that there are many to choose from! (Image credit: Mark Devlin) 1/8
