Past Current and Pending Projects.
From NOAOWiki
This table summarizes observational programmes as well as theoretical projects. Some programmes have executed, others are awaiting observations, others are budding ideas, others are simply the availability of certain telescopes/instruments and need a good idea/technique to match. Enter here anything you have.
The binary central star list is finally here (working on it, so not complete yet)!
