Visibility III / V
The project started last summer is getting ready. Unistellar, a cosmic disaster alert network built by the Seti Institute, ZTF (Zwicky Transient Facility), and the upcoming Vera C. Rubin Observatory under construction in Chile. The alarm comes automatically within a minute when, for example, a new gamma-ray burst, supernova or fast radio burst occurs. Thus, there is always someone on the network ready to observe the object somewhere on Earth. I started seeing these alerts last August and now we're at the point where an automated bot is sending us the results in a Slack channel.
