Artist's Description
Four lasers from four telescopes all simultaneously observing the Galactic Center, where a supermassive black hole resides (with a mass of 6 million Suns, crammed into a sphere of radius 1/10th the Earth-Sun distance). From left to right the lasers are being emitted from Gemini North Observatory (outside of frame), Keck II, Keck I, and Subaru Observatory. The lasers launched from telescopes are now commonly used to help increase the accuracy of astronomical observations. In some sky locations, Earth atmosphere-induced fluctuations in starlight can indicate how the air mass over a telescope is changing, but many times no bright star exists in the direction where atmospheric information is needed. In these cases, astronomers create an artificial star where they need it -- with a laser. Observations of the artificial laser guide star in real-time can reveal information so detailed about the blurring effects of the Earth's atmosphere, that much of this blurring can be removed by rapidly...
