The NASA Herschel Science Center is an important resource that has been established to directly support the US-based community in proposing and using the Herschel Space Observatory. The NHSC is here to help you get the very most out of this special scientific opportunity!


1. First NHSC Data Processing Workshop Reschedule

This is to announce that the NHSC has decided to re-schedule the NHSC Data Processing Workshop from 9/10 January 2009 to a later date. We regret any inconvenience this change might cause.

It has become clear that a dynamic and shifting project schedule has made it difficult for the NHSC to meet our goals for the workshop – that of an in depth and hands on introduction to the Herschel DP system for all three instruments. We are very sensitive to the fact that an early "heads-up" on the DP system and its inner workings is something the US community has requested.

Because the project schedule is rapidly evolving, we are not able to commit to exact dates for the rescheduled workshop now. With the current launch and Herschel shipment schedule, we believe mid-March or a couple of weeks later to be the most likely. We will be moving on this rapidly, and will inform you as soon as possible.

Please note that we will be hosting a Herschel Splinter Session at the Long Beach AAS meeting. We will use this opportunity to provide an overview of the DP system, and will provide demonstrations of the existing DP software at the NHSC Booth.

Registration for the Workshop is currently closed. The Registration site and other information will be made available on the NHSC web page. To register, just follow the links on our workshop web-page at http://www.ipac.caltech.edu/Herschel/workshops.shtml. As always, you can also send questions to the NHSC Helpdesk at http://www.ipac.caltech.edu/Herschel/helpdesk.
