EDEN Pilot Survey Receives Telescope Time

23 December 2017 by Daniel in News, Updates Comments Off on EDEN Pilot Survey Receives Telescope Time

Our EDEN pilot survey received all the requested telescope time on five telescopes ranging from 0.7m diameter to 2.3m! In our pilot study we are characterizing the photometric precision and reliability of the different telescopes to identify the ideal setup and any necessary modifications for the efficient EDEN survey.
