Target of Opportunity (ToO) Advisory Board

About the ToO Advisory Board

The Rubin Target of Opportunity (ToO) Advisory Board is charged with giving advice on various aspects of the ToO process during Rubin Operations. While the triggering of ToO observations with Rubin Observatory will largely be by automated algorithms, the Board will give input on short (<24 hour), medium (days-weeks), and long (months-years) timescales.
