This book was written to describe the science which is anticipated being performed using the Large Synoptic Survey Telescope, a future optical imaging facility. This provides an excellent starting point for exploring the current plans for making gravitational lensing measurements from future large area surveys, and what those measurements will enable. (A)

One of the results of the analysis of weak lensing in the COSMOS field was a three-dimensional mass map, described by Massey et al as "the scaffolding of the Universe." Many news outlets covered the COSMOS dark matter map story, but in The Independent the map was presented covering the whole of the front page. (E)

COSMOS was by no means the first time that dark matter mapping with gravitational lensing had attracted publicity. The year before, the lensing analysis of the Bullet Cluster was picked up as providing the "proof" of dark matter's existence. (E)
