The Vera C. Rubin Observatory, now under construction, will be a largeaperture, widefield, groundbased telescopecameradata processing system that will digitally survey half the sky every few nights in six optical bands. It will explore a wide range of astrophysical questions, ranging from discovering killer asteroids, exploring the time domain universe, mapping the evolution and structure of our Milky Way galaxy, to examining the nature of dark matter and dark energy. The project includes an 8meter class wide field telescope, a 3.2 gigapixel camera with 2second readout, and a stateoftheart petascale data management system to process, archive, and distribute the 15 TB of data produced every night. Rubin Observatory Construction started an 8year effort in July 2014. Rubin Observatory Construction is a single project funded by both the National Science Foundation and Department of Energy. Once completed, the Rubin Observatory will conduct the Legacy Survey of Space and Time LSST which will be the largest and most modern optical survey project ever built and a flagship of US science and engineering.
