<strong>Gemini</strong> + SPIRou @ <strong>CFHT</strong><br />

GRACES represents a new paradigm –<br />

✓ Sending science pho<strong>to</strong>ns from one telescope <strong>to</strong> another is a first on Mauna Kea<br />

✓ <strong>Remote</strong>ly operate an instrument at <strong>CFHT</strong> from <strong>Gemini</strong>-N/Hilo is a first<br />

✓ Using data reduction S/W developed by <strong>CFHT</strong> (OPERA) for <strong>Gemini</strong> users is a first<br />

GRACES is a logical segue <strong>to</strong> an even more powerful facility...<br />
