  11. 🇬🇧 “Do we really want Square Kilometre Array Observatory discoveries to be announced from a #HQ alongside what would be the world’s largest disused 🚫 radio #telescope?”

    Jodrell Bank 🔭 was among dozens of facilities, instruments and projects hit by cuts last week. The #RubinObservatory in Chile faces a 20% cut to #UK participation. The Next-Generation Transit Survey, which is searching for solar systems similar to Earth’s, received a 45% cut 📉 theguardian.com/science/2026/a

  36. A more technical update about the start of the #LSST with the #RubinObservatory in spite of non-perfect performance: community.lsst.org/t/the-lsst- -> "a brief summary of what has prompted us to draw the early operations optimization phase to a close and get the survey started. [...] Pre-LSST observations show that the as-built Simonyi Telescope can already deliver an arcsecond sky survey, and there is a technical pathway to make the ~10% improvement in delivered image quality needed to approximately match the baseline survey simulation and deliver a sub-arcsecond LSST, as required. [...] The Board also noted that the time was right: all eight LSST Science Collaborations sent written support for starting the LSST while continuing to improve performance in parallel."
