Rubin Observatory's GitHub Org map

Rubin Observatory's mission is to carry out the Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST).

This is our main Github org containing the repositories that are likely of most interest to our scientific community, regardless of which team authored them.

As a fanatically open-source project, we have a number of additional GitHub orgs containing code for our internal systems.

Org What
lsst Science-facing software, including the LSST Science Pipelines repositories

lsst-epo Education and Public Outreach team repos
lsst-sitcom System Intergration and Commissioning team repos
lsst-sqre SQuaRE team repos (inc. Rubin Science Platform )
