Note this is now out of date and has not been updated to reflect the new schedule. For now, focus on Guy et al. RTN-11 document. Likely a new version of RDO-11 will be synchronised with RTN-11 and released in the next few months.

Significant changes have been made to the LSST start schedule during October 2023. Due to a delay of several months in the delivery of LSSTCam to Chile (due to a vacuum leak), and a failure of the summit dome crane, it is now likely that some on-sky observations and commissioning tasks will now happen with ComCam. This is a change since the last official version of the commissioning plan and path to first light was summarised on this page.
