Implementing Remote Observing at the JCMT


الملخص بالإنكليزية

The James Clerk Maxwell Telescope (JCMT) is the largest single dish telescope in the world focused on sub-millimeter astronomy - and it remains at the forefront of sub-millimeter discovery space. JCMT continues itspush for higher efficiency and greater science impact with a switch to fully remote operation. This switch toremote operations occurred on November 1st 2019. The switch to remote operations should be recognized to bepart of a decade long process involving incremental changes leading to Extended Observing - observing beyondthe classical night shift - and eventually to full remote operations. The success of Remote Observing is indicatedin the number of productive hours and continued low fault rate from before and after the switch.
