PS1SC Science Council Meeting, December 2006Ken Chambers Vision of PS1 System and the PS1SC Project teams are scientfic collaborations beyond collecting PS1 data – extending to coordinated follow-up observations across key project teams. This science council as a whole is scientific collaboration that works together on common goals of data analysis and collection. New paradigm of 21 st century astronomy – building a substantial integrated system from coordinated observations, to metadata, to data reduction and analysis, to scientific understanding of the collection of detections and non-detections, and their selection functions, into scientific discoveries and new understanding of our world from earth impactors to the edge of the universe.
