SKA SHANGHAI MEETING https://indico.skatelescope.org/event/551/

25-28 November | Shanghai, China

All SKA eyes will be on Shanghai from 25- 28 November for a major meeting involving engineers, data scientists, astronomers and a host of other experts from across the SKA community and beyond. All are invited for the "2019 SKA Shanghai Meeting: Concluding our Past, Realising our Future", which will focus on the immediate and long-term future of the SKA, from procurement to commissioning and operations. It will see the SKA Organisation present the full design of the two telescopes for the first time, finally unifying the years of work carried out by the SKA’s design consortia. There will also be talks on key SKA science topics, presentations by colleagues at precursor, pathfinder and peer projects, and sessions on SKA Science Regional Centres, along with a site visit to the 500m FAST telescope.
