Statistics

Vlt

Scientific paper

Science Operations started at UT1 Antu on April 1, 1999. This article is a brief account of the first six months (Period 63). As the statistics below will show, operations have been fairly successful. Visitor and Service modes were intermixed during P63, in a 50/50 ratio for the available time (i.e. discounting Guaranteed time, which is by definition in Visitor mode): we had 62 nights in Visitor, and 60 in Service. To this one should add 10 Service nights for the Calibration Plans, and any time allocated but not used for technical time, target of opportunity time and director discretionary time (so that in the end, more than 85 nights were devoted to Service Mode observations and calibrations).
