Scientific paper

The Large Synoptic Survey Telescope is a large aperture, wide-field, ground-based telescope that will survey half the sky every few nights in six visible bands. The LSST system provides an end-to-end astronomical survey facility to acquire, process, analyze, catalog, and preserve the world's largest database of optical astronomical data. LSST will also open the time domain for studies of transient and moving objects. The integrated system includes the telescope to the science access centers that support the key science deliverables and individual users. Scheduled to begin full scientific operations in 2016, the LSST Observatory will be sited atop Cerro Pachón in Northern Chile.
