Congratulations!

You’ve learned about the broadband filters of the Rubin Observatory LSST Camera.

Next, you will investigate how to use broadband (ugrizi) filters and colors to communicate scientific information for three different astronomical cases:

• How short and long wavelengths of light are used to estimate star temperatures
• How short wavelengths of light are used to locate star-forming regions in galaxies
• How long wavelengths of infrared light is used to locate very distant galaxies
