✍️ Rubin #CommissioningNotes, entry 4️⃣: whoaaaaa, we’re halfway there 🎶
Halfway through data-taking with Rubin’s test camera, that is. Our team has continued to make great progress testing Rubin’s systems with ComCam.
=== Highlights ===
🎨 The team got data using all six of Rubin’s wavelength filters for the first time!
💨 The team also continued increasing the telescope’s speed as the systems that manage the forces felt by the mirrors continued to show good response.
