Hawkcams to be Decommissioned

LCOGT is about to install the new Spectral cameras, offering a wider field of view and faster read out time.  During these upgrades, the older Hawkcam cameras, EA01 and EA02, will be decommissioned.  According to our database, all current observing projects which used the Hawkcams have either concluded or transferred to the Merope cameras.  We have the standard set of calibration frames available for these programs.  

If your science project requires continued access to the Hawkcam, please contact us as soon as possible.
