The Southern Sky Survey. The Southern Sky Survey will create the first digital map of the southern sky, providing a community available database of a billion objects. This database will be used by entire community, with our group targetting four key areas including: studying the creation of our solar system through a census of distant asteroids, exploring how stars and planets form by observing nearby young stars, probing the shape and extent of the Galaxy's dark matter halo, and discovering when the first stars in the Universe formed. This data set will also be used as a staging ground for a Virtual Observatory.\r\n

南天巡天南方天空调查将创建第一个南方天空的数字地图，提供一个社区可用的10亿个对象的数据库。这个数据库将被整个社区使用，我们的团队瞄准四个关键领域，包括：通过对遥远小行星的普查来研究太阳系的形成，通过观察附近的年轻恒星来探索恒星和行星的形成，探测银河系暗物质晕的形状和程度，以及发现宇宙中第一颗恒星何时形成。这个数据集也将被用作虚拟天文台的中转站。R\n
