    Update on laser schedule from the project:

    “Our passes through June 3 will continue to start after sunset (but will be shortened to just 2.5 hours starting April 1). The 3 passes from June 10-24 may start up to one hour before sunset. In July, we are planning on doing uplink-only passes (up to 5 of these) during the daytime, but the hours are still being finalized.”

    If you plan to fly in the area during these times, please contact either:

    Marcum Martz 626-710-8645, or Daniel Atamanczyk 626-720-1988.

    I wanted to give you a heads up that DSOC 2.5 hour laser operations will be transitioning to daytime in July. Two of the passes will start around noon and the other three passes will start closer to 5 pm. The two passes close to noon will transmit the lasers for half of the pass (~1.25 hours) at most. The laser safety system continues to work with no issues and we foresee no issue with its operation during the day based on past testing.

    There is an update to my phone number: 626-710-8645

    Thank you for keeping us updated. I hope the soaring weather improves enough to be able to fly past Wrightwood.
