Calendars:
On this page, have a general checklist of things observers need to do.
Things to do before showing up for a DCT observing run.
If you are a first time observer to DCT, or you are using a new instrument, please email DCT staff so that we can set up time on your first night to cover any questions or issues you are wondering about. Typically one, or another Lowell staff member will meet you out at the DCT about an hour before sunset for this. Also, please review the LDT First Time Users page.
If you have not been to the site before, please don't enter without a Lowell staffer, or someone who is familiar with the site. There is an alarm that needs to be dis-armed, and it is not always obvious how. Your lodging packet should include keys and written instructions about the gate and alarm codes.
Link to the specific child pages with more information.
