The Southern Sky Survey will make significant, high profile discoveries in Astronomy ranging from understanding objects like Pluto, to discovering the first black holes in the distant Universe. These breakthroughs will capture the imagination of potential young scientists and technologists, and will lead Australians to undertaking studies in these vital areas. To achieve our discoveries, we will create and serve Australia's largest publicly available database.This will create economic and scientific benefits by training a significant number of young Australians in using massive data sets, data manipulation, and problem solving.

南天巡天将在天文学领域做出重大的、引人注目的发现，从了解冥王星这样的天体，到发现遥远宇宙中的第一个黑洞。这些突破将激发潜在的年轻科学家和技术人员的想象力，并将引导澳大利亚人在这些重要领域开展研究。为了实现我们的发现，我们将创建并服务于澳大利亚最大的公开数据库。这将通过培训大量澳大利亚年轻人使用海量数据集、数据操作和解决问题来创造经济和科学效益。
