Google, the University of Washington, and Arizona University will work together on the Large Synoptic Survey Telescope (LSST) project that will produce a huge database of points in the solar system. The telescope is planned to begin operation in 2013. The project is dubbed as a 'movie of the universe'. It seems as though the plan is to put together all the 30,000 gigs of daily images into a consistent moving picture.
