Accumulated Data This Year
With the 1.5 Million measurement lines last night the total for the year
is 30.8 million lines of "tile" data. This is not quite the start that
I hoped for, but a start none the less. It would appear that tom1,
tom2, and tom3 are now "production" machines. tom4 and tom5 are coming
down the home stretch to completion.
There is still a little "tuning" to be done to gett all the machines
pointed to the centers of their tiles. I now have "rules" that might
let me do this without so much trial and error.
The possible data rate is clearly less than that of the last couple of
years. Still I hope that the 200 second exposure snarfs up some faint
stars that the earlier data missed. These should be the most
interesting since they will have been missed by most other surveys. We
shall see.
