Cycle 1 Progress Update

The JAO announced that ALMA will spend the next few months giving priority to commissioning and iimprovements to infrastructure and overall system stability. During this time, Early Science observing will proceed at a lower priority. As a consequence, the ALMA Cycle1 observing period will be extended from the originally announced end of October 31, 2013 until at least the end of January 2014. The timescale for ALMA Cycle2 will be announced in the near future.
