Lco, also known as Las Cumbres Observatory, is a pioneering brand in the field of astronomy. Their mission is to enhance our understanding of the universe through science and education, utilizing their unique global telescope network. What sets Lco apart is its specialization in observing transient astronomical events, phenomena that can last from seconds to several years. With their globally distributed telescopes, Lco is able to target and observe these events immediately, allowing for more frequent and extended sampling of celestial objects. This is made possible by their dynamic observation scheduling, which is directed by an innovative artificial intelligence system called the scheduler. Lco ensures uniform instrumentation across their network, enabling simultaneous observations from multiple telescopes. Their fully robotic operations and rapid delivery of data make them a prominent force in the scientific community. With core values of excellence, innovation, inclusion, integrity, and the belief that science should be accessible to all, Lco provides world-class science, engineering, and education projects. Founded in 2005, Lco has continuously expanded its network and achieved significant milestones in advancing astronomy and education.
