The rationale

The Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST) has now officially begun at the NSF–DOE Vera C. Rubin Observatory in Chile. Following the successful completion of commissioning and early operations, the observatory has entered its planned 10-year survey, repeatedly imaging the entire southern sky with the world's largest digital camera. LSST is expected to produce an unprecedented time-domain dataset that will transform research on dark matter, dark energy, the Solar System, transient phenomena, and the structure of the Milky Way, while generating millions of real-time astronomical alerts each night.

To foster collaboration within the Polish LSST community and share early scientific and technical experience with LSST data, a two-day conference will be held on 19–20 October in Wrocław. The meeting will provide a forum for participants to exchange their first experiences working with LSST data, present initial scientific results, and discuss emerging analysis techniques and challenges. An optional hands-on workshop will follow on Wednesday, October 21, offering participants practical training in accessing, exploring, and analyzing LSST data and introducing the tools and workflows used within the LSST data system.
