The Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) is currently in its 3rd year of operation and just made public its first data release: the data from the period of Survey Validation. Located at Kitt Peak National Observatory, this multi-object spectrograph is putting together the largest 3D map of the observable universe created to date. I will give a status update on the DESI project, present the Early Data Release as well as give an overview of the early science results.
