Gemini 2020A Shutdown and IGRINS

Post date: May 2, 2020 11:07:53 PM

The closure of Gemini South for COVID-19 has postponed IGRINS observing. We anticipate that observations could resume in early June 2020, but this deadline is not firmly set.

We anticipate IGRINS will be one of the primary instruments once Gemini resumes operation. We also need to consider that the 2020B semester will be impacted by COVID-19 in some way.

PIs should contact gmace [at] utexas.edu with questions related to IGRINS, and should reference the Gemini FAQ document for facility related inquiries.
