<h5>The World’s Biggest Camera!</h5><p>Scientists have shared the first photo from space taken by the biggest camera in the world!</p><p>This camera is bigger than a car and was made to help scientists learn more about stars, planets, and the universe.</p><p>It is called the LSST Camera, and it is placed in Chile, at the Vera C. Rubin Observatory. This is one of the best places in the world to look into space.</p><h5>How Big Is This Camera?</h5><p>The name of this camera, 'LSST', means 'Legacy Survey of Space and Time'.</p><p>The camera is 14 feet long and its weight is around 3,000 kilograms, which is almost like three cars!</p><p>Its main lens is 5 feet wide, which is taller than many children!</p><p>Inside the camera are 189 special sensors called CCDs (Charge-Coupled Devices). These are like digital eyes that can see things in space very clearly, even from very far away.</p><p>The camera takes pictures that are 3,200 megapixels big. That means it can clearly see tiny things that are billions of kilometers away.</p><h5>How Does The Camera Work?</h5><p>The LSST Camera works with a big telescope that uses mirrors to collect light from space.</p><p>When light from stars or galaxies enters the camera, it hits the CCD sensors.</p><p>These sensors use pixels (tiny squares that catch light) to change the light into electric signals. These signals are then joined together to make one big photo.</p><p>To work well, the camera’s sensors are kept very cold, at -101°C.</p><h5>What Photos Did It Take?</h5><p>The first picture taken by the camera shows two colorful clouds in space called 'nebulae'. These are places in space where new stars are born.&nbsp;</p><p>Their names are the Trifid Nebula and the Lagoon Nebula.</p><figure class="image"><img src="https://storage.googleapis.com/newsahoot.appspot.com/Nebula_49b547e416.jpg" alt=""><figcaption>Lagoon Nebula (below/bigger) and Trifid Nebula (above/smaller) | Image Credits: Rubin Observatory</figcaption></figure><p>This photo was made by putting together 678 small pictures to make one big picture, which has almost 5 billion pixels!</p><p>The camera also took a photo of the Virgo Cluster, which is a large group of galaxies and has over 10 million galaxies!</p><figure class="image"><img src="https://storage.googleapis.com/newsahoot.appspot.com/cluster_37c51f13e2.jpg" alt=""><figcaption>A small part of the Virgo Cluster | Image Credits: Rubin Observatory</figcaption></figure><h5>Why This Camera Is So Amazing</h5><p>This camera will take pictures of the sky every few nights for the next 10 years.</p><p>It will help scientists find asteroids, planets and learn more about our universe.</p><p>This is just the start of an exciting journey to explore space!</p>
