So stoked for this observatory to go online! One cool uses it'll excel at is taking "deltas" between images and detect moving stuff. Close asteroids is one obvious goal, but I'm more interested in the next Oumuamua / Borisov like objects that come in from interstellar space. It would be amazing to get early warnings about those, and be able to study them with other powerful telescopes we have now.
