====== LOFAR Status Meetings ======


LOFAR Status Meetings (LSM), presenting updates of the status of the telescope and discussing recent developments, are held monthly at ASTRON. The meetings are also broadcast via Vidyo to everyone interested.
 

Please use a headset and please mute the microphone in the Evo session as long as you do not want to raise a question or say something.
