How this entity was disambiguated
This entity first appeared as the object of triple T11109340 — resolving that mention is where its identity was fixed. The disambiguator weighed these candidate entities and picked the highlighted one (or “None”, minting a new entity). This is how homonymy is resolved: the same surface form can point to different entities.

Dark Energy Survey
The Dark Energy Survey is a large international astronomical project that uses a wide-field camera on a Chilean telescope to map hundreds of millions of galaxies and study the nature of dark energy and cosmic acceleration.
-
B.
Dark Energy Camera
The Dark Energy Camera is a powerful wide-field astronomical imaging instrument designed to study dark energy and map the large-scale structure of the universe.
-
C.
Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument
The Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) is a state-of-the-art astronomical survey instrument designed to map the large-scale structure of the universe by measuring the spectra and redshifts of millions of galaxies and quasars to study dark energy.
-
D.
DECam Legacy Survey
The DECam Legacy Survey is a wide-field astronomical imaging project that uses the Dark Energy Camera to map large areas of the sky for studies of galaxy evolution, cosmology, and targets for spectroscopic surveys.
-

How these facts were elicited
The pipeline generated the facts above by prompting gpt-5.1 with this entity's name + description and the instruction below.
Instruction
You are a knowledge base construction expert. Given a subject entity and a description of it, return factual statements that you know for the subject as a JSON list of dictionaries(triples), where keys must be "subject", "predicate" and "object". The number of facts may be very high, between 25 to 50 or more, for very popular subjects. For less popular subjects, the number of facts can be very low, like 5 or 10. # Requirements - If you don't know the subject at all, return an empty list. - If the subject is not a named entity, return an empty list. - Include at least one triple where predicate is "instanceOf". - Do not get too wordy. - Separate several objects into multiple triples with one object.
Input
Subject: LSST Dark Energy Science Collaboration Description of subject: The LSST Dark Energy Science Collaboration is an international consortium of scientists dedicated to using data from the Vera C. Rubin Observatory to study dark energy and the expansion history of the universe.
