"The combination of relatively small mirrors with very large digital cameras results in an economical observing system that can observe the entire available sky several times each month."
"A major goal of Pan-STARRS is to discover and characterize Earth-approaching objects, both asteroids & comets, that might pose a danger to our planet."
