Since the last team meeting
We are now 2/3 of way through the project (in terms of budget…further in terms of schedule!)
Changes since last meeting• First light move back to February 2011, with the system
tear-down and rebuild beginning in July 2010• All component designs are complete. All PDRs have
been held.• External interim cost review was held in February

Management Status
• The biggest concerns are the completion funding and staying on schedule
• Funding– FY10 funding is secure at both JPL and Caltech– JPL MOU report strongly recommended funding the MOU for
another 5 years and specifically funding AO in FY10 and FY11• JPL has funded AO for FY10
– NSF ATI proposal to be submitted by Monday. Would cover 100% of COO FY11-12 funding, and 50% of JPL FY11.
• Schedule– Due to funding concerns, we must push to meet the schedule
• Control of requirements creep will be important• Identify especially challenging requirements and discuss with
management before spending months working on them
PALM-3000External Review
• External Interim Project Review – February 2009– Review of the management plan, scientific
competitiveness and cost to completion– From review committee report:
• “The committee was impressed with the management and commitment of the PALM-3000 team.”
• “The past experience of the team in deploying the existing Palomar AO system gives us confidence that they can achieve the ambitious goals of the system.”
– Only significant technical concern was the 3000-actuator deformable mirror (DM) delivery, which we have addressed

FY10 Schedule Issues
Critical Path(s)• High-order deformable mirror procurement and testing• Software development
– High Order Wavefront Processor
• Electronics assembly and testing– Especially DM & motor cabling.
Strategies• Will need to track progress on these particular tasks closely.• Management needs to clearly spell out when subsystems must be
ready for integration into the testbed & final system.• Team must inform us when unexpected problems arise.
