SKYNET is a distributed network of robotic telescopes operated by students, faculty, and staff at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. The network began operation in January 2006 with the opening of the six PROMPT telescopes in Chile. Since then, several more telescopes in the U.S. and Europe have been integrated into the network. We are ramping up to integrate many new telescopes around the world throughout 2011 and 2012. Vivian Hoette will tell us about Skynet in general, how you can use it, and more about her program called Skynet Junior Scholars - she sent mail about this specific program a little while ago.
