The "Official" CTIO Telescope schedule is stored on the ALPS database in Tucson. Accessing the schedule in Tucson will produce the most up to date version possible "on the fly" from the ALPS database. For the convenience of persons located in Chile when the net is very slow, non-functional or when the ALPS computer is down, an up to date schedule is automatically generated once a day at about 6AM Chile time and stored here. The time they were last updated is shown so you can be sure when they were last updated. After the semester begins, the only changes are usually last minute DD time assignments so these schedules will be correct well over 99.9% of the time.
The approved proposal list is mirrored but not routinely updated since in theory it does not change. The referenced abstracts are not mirrored, but can be retrieved automatically from Tucson by clicking on the reference (if the net is working), just as they can in the Tucson schedule.
