As partners for the Vera C. Rubin Observatory's First Look Watch Parties, we’re incredibly excited to share the release of the first images from the Rubin Observatory. DYK that @L3HarrisTech right here in Rochester engineered the secondary mirror used at the Observatory?

Honored to deliver remarks on the House floor today in celebration of @rocRMSC's new permanent exhibit, which honors Indigenous culture and showcases Native art. I look forward to touring the exhibit and meeting the visionary behind this inspiring project, curator Jamie Jacobs.
