The assembly of the MuSCAT3 multi-channel imager began on Monday. Today, the MuSCAT team is focusing and testing communications to the cameras. We have decided to postpone the installation of MuSCAT3 until Monday, September 21. The Spectral camera and FLOYDS spectrograph on the 2m telescope on Haleakala will remain available for science observations over the weekend.
