This year’s Canadian Astronomical Society (CASCA) meeting saw many Gemini staff participants. Laura Ferrarese presented a summary of Canadian participation to Gemini entitled, “Gemini – Access to Both Hemispheres.” At a Gemini lunch event five presenters discussed topics relating to the future of Gemini, which included:
- NCOA
- LSST
- Visiting instrument program
- Small instrument upgrade program
- Development of the new data reduction pipeline DRAGONS
- Changes in Gemini users support practices, and
- Canada’s assessment point.
We appreciate the visible location of our booth which received many visitors. Thanks to David Bohlender and all the people in Victoria who organized such a special and successful meeting.
Oh, and happy 100th anniversary to the Dominion Astrophysical Observatory!
