These surveys were combined into the DESI Legacy Imaging Surveys, or Legacy Surveys. [17] [18] Colored images of the survey can be viewed in the Legacy Survey Sky Browser. [19] The legacy survey covers 16,000 square degrees of the night sky containing 1.6 billion objects including galaxies and quasars out to 11 billion years ago.
The Dark Energy Survey (DES) is an astronomical survey designed to constrain the properties of dark energy.It uses images taken in the near-ultraviolet, visible, and near-infrared to measure the expansion of the universe using Type Ia supernovae, baryon acoustic oscillations, the number of galaxy clusters, and weak gravitational lensing.

Due to new deeper sky surveys, such as the DESI Legacy Imaging Survey, a large number of streams are to be expected to be discovered in the future. An initial search in 2023 by Martínez-Delgado et al. searched 389 galaxies and found 89 candidates with stellar streams (22,9%).
The DESI Legacy Imaging Surveys (2013–present) looks at 14,000 square degrees of the northern and southern sky with the Bok 2.3-meter telescope, the 4-meter Mayall telescope, and the 4-meter Víctor M. Blanco Telescope. The Legacy Surveys make use of the Mayall z-band Legacy Survey, the Beijing–Arizona Sky Survey, and the Dark Energy Survey.
DESI Legacy Imaging Surveys (Legacy Surveys) - large imaging survey of the extragalactic sky, in three bands and covering one third of the sky, 2013–present; GSNST - Global Supernovae Search Team - an all sky survey launched in August 2018 to look for Astronomical Transients; Gaia catalogues of over a billion parallax distances
Currently, Dr. Schlegel is the co-PI of the DECam Legacy Survey (DECals) (with Dr. Arjun Dey) sky survey. [7] This 3-band sky survey, now completed, covers approximately 5,000 square degrees of the night sky, when combined with two other companion surveys the Legacy Survey expands to 16,000 square degrees containing 1.6 billion objects ...
8. Mental Health Education is the New Sex Education. According to the Hims survey, 26% of parents have educated their children about mental health (an equal percentage of moms and dads) but 90% ...
PKS 1353−341, also known as LEDA 88936 is a quasar (99% chance) [8] located in the southern constellation Centaurus.It has an apparent magnitude of 18.5, making it only visible in powerful telescopes.
