Scientific paper

The Wide Field Camera 3 was installed into the Hubble Space Telescope in May 2009. It is now in full scientific operation supporting over 170 GO programs and accounting for nearly half of all HST observations. Major advances have been made in characterizing and calibration WFC3 included improvements to its detector, photometric, astrometric, and flat field calibrations. We report on the current status of WFC3 and its calibration, the state of the data analysis software, and plans for future calibration.
