PS1, the Pan-STARRS Telescope No. 1 began the PS1 Science Mission May 13, 2009. Operations of the PS1 System include the Observatory, Telescope, 1.4 Gigapixel Camera, Image Processing Pipeline , PSPS relational database and reduced science product software servers.
The PS1 Surveys include: (1) A 3pi Steradian Survey, (2) A Medium Deep survey of 11PS1 footprints spaced around the sky; (3) A solar system survey optimized for Near Earth Objects, (4) a Stellar Transit Survey; and (5) a Deep Survey of M31. The PS1 3pi Survey has covered the sky with 4 to 6 visits above a declination of -30 in five bands.
The performance of the PS1 system, sky coverage, cadence, and data quality of the surveys will be presented as well as plans for the transient data release to the community.
The PS1 Science Consortium consists of The Institute for Astronomy at the University of Hawai'i in Manoa, the Max Planck Institute for Astronomy, Heidelberg and the Max Planck Institute for Extraterrestrial Physics, Garching, The Johns Hopkins University, the University of Durham, the University of Edinburgh, the Queen's University Belfast, the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics, the Los Cumbres Observatory Global Telescope Network Incorporated, and the National Central University of Taiwan, and NASA.
