#####################################################################
Project 1:
All observers should be aware that their observing program could be
interrupted on short notice if LIGO/Virgo detects gravitational wave 
event.  If such an event occurs, please cooperate with requests for
observations so that an important opportunity is not missed.

Alert from:
Brother Guy Consolmagno SJ, Director of the Vatican Observatory:

All the telescope users associated with the University of Arizona are
being asked to document the scientific results that come from their 
use, in order to give our funding agencies and donors a clear idea of
the results that our telescopes are producing.

To that end, as an essential part of your getting time at the VATT, 
we ask that you:

(A) let us know about any publication that uses data you have 
obtained on the VATT, by email to:  brother_guy@mac.com

(B) be sure to acknowledge explicitly in every publication that uses 
data from the VATT, that your work is based on data acquired at the 
VATT or is otherwise connected to the VATT

(C) use the facility keyword VATT in publications 
(Astronomy Data System adsabs.harvard.edu)
