Scholarly footprint
Bibliographic registers publish measured figures for this heading: 12 language editions of the general reference literature carrying an article (Wikimedia (language editions)) and 3 deposited research records (DataCite Commons). A count of publications is evidence of attention, not of standing, and is given here only as a measure.
Literature. 1 scholarly publication naming this subject was located in the registry of record.
<title>WIYN telescope active optics system</title>, SPIE Proceedings, 1995.
Evidence base
This article draws on 3 independent source lineages. Copies and mirrors of the same underlying record were collapsed into a single witness, so 3 means 3 genuinely separate publishers of record. 10 further registers were consulted and returned nothing for this heading.
Sources
Each source is named with the standing the house places on it, so the evidence can be weighed rather than taken on trust.

Astronomers have released a gargantuan survey of the galactic plane of the Milky Way. The new dataset contains a staggering 3.32 billion celestial objects— arguably the largest such catalog so far. The data for this unprecedented survey were taken with the US Department of Energy-fabricated Dark Energy Camera at the NSF’s Cerro Tololo Inter-American Observatory in Chile, a Program of NOIRLab.

The picture record
This cloudy, ominous structure is CG 4 , a cometary globule nicknamed ‘God’s Hand’. CG 4 is one of many cometary globules present within the Milky Way, and how these objects get their distinct form is still a matter of debate among astronomers.
