Summit Inspection
The COVID-19 pandemic continues to impact Rubin Observatory construction. The summit shutdown is still in effect and has halted all activity there including work on the Telescope Mount Assembly (TMA), and the Dome. A crew of six people traveled to Cerro Pachón on March 31st to complete mechanical, environmental, and electrical inspections of the facilities and equipment on the summit. Everything remains in good condition since the shutdown 10 days ago. The team also brought back items that staff had requested for telework productivity during the summit closure.
