LSST has a strong presence at the January 2011 meeting in Seattle, starting with a Special Session titled "Community Science with LSST" on Monday, 1/10 with six speakers. Twenty-five posters make up poster session 252 on Tuesday, 1/11. Links to these posters and presentations will be presented on this page as they become available.
As the Large Synoptic Survey Telescope (LSST) moves closer to operations, the astronomical community is gearing up to take maximum advantage of the unprecedented opportunity LSST provides. This AAS Special Session gives astronomers a preview of the available data products and interfaces as well as a discussion of the transformative science enabled by LSST.

Financial support for Rubin Observatory comes from the National Science Foundation (NSF) through Cooperative Agreement No. 1258333, the Department of Energy (DOE) Office of Science under Contract No. DE-AC02-76SF00515, and private funding raised by the LSST Corporation. The NSF-funded Rubin Observatory Project Office for construction was established as an operating center under management of the Association of Universities for Research in Astronomy (AURA). The DOE-funded effort to build the Rubin Observatory LSST Camera (LSSTCam) is managed by the SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory (SLAC).
The National Science Foundation (NSF) is an
independent federal agency created by Congress
in 1950 to promote the progress of science. NSF supports basic research and people to create knowledge that transforms the future.
NSF and DOE will continue to support Rubin Observatory in its Operations phase. They will also provide support for scientific research with LSST data.
