Flipboard Science Desk<p>Is there anybody out there? The Vera C. Rubin Observatory in Chile is trying to answer the perennial question of if we're alone in the universe, using the world's largest digital camera to scan the southern sky every three to four nights for at least a decade. "In the first month of the survey alone, it could double the number of known small bodies in our Solar System, spotting asteroids much farther out than ever before," Big Think reports. As to extra terrestrial life and technology, it may get us closer to finding if they exist — unless they happen to be hanging out above the northern hemisphere.</p><p><a href="https://flip.it/1WRqfT" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">flip.it/1WRqfT</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p><p><a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/Science" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Science</span></a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/Space" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Space</span></a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/Technology" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Technology</span></a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/Chile" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Chile</span></a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/VeraCRubinObservatory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>VeraCRubinObservatory</span></a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/ExtraterrestrialLife" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ExtraterrestrialLife</span></a></p>
