Description

The Dark Energy Survey (DES) is a deep, wide-area optical imaging survey in the southern hemisphere. The unprecedented photometry from DES has allowed for exciting science results on topics ranging from cosmology to our Galaxy. I will discuss details of the survey -- which completed its 5.5-year observations in January 2019 -- and highlight some recent science results from the collaboration.
