's 8.4m mirror moves into the Observatory.
After 9 years of construction, we're about 4 months away from first images.
It's not every day we get to throw a welcome home party 🎉
Last week marked a big construction achievement with the move of our 8.4-meter primary/tertiary mirror into the main building! It'll now go through prep to get its shiny silver coating ✨

What an absolute marvel of human engineering. I can’t wait to see what Vera Rubin will teach us about the universe.
