In this Tech Talk, originally aired on December 11, 2025, and hosted by Colin Orion Chandler (University of Washington) and Mi Dai (University of Pittsburgh), we are joined by Carrie Holt of the Los Cumbres International Observatory to discuss a system that coordinates follow-up telescope observations of minor planets (e.g., asteroids, comets).
LINCC Tech Talks, hosted by LINCC Frameworks Project Scientists Colin Orion Chandler (DiRAC Institute, University of Washington) and Mi Dai (University of Pittsburgh), are typically held on the second Thursday of each month. Additional information and the schedule are available here: https://lsstdiscoveryalliance.org/pro.... LINCC is the LSST Interdisciplinary Network for Collaboration and Computing.
Abstract:
Rubin Observatory and LSST will dramatically increase the number of discovered solar system objects, creating a major challenge for follow-up coordination. FOMO (Follow-up Observations of Moving Objects) is a centralized platform designed to streamline this process. Built using the TOM Toolkit, FOMO provides a single reference point for tracking targets, submitting follow-up requests, and monitoring observation statuses across facilities. It supports automated ingestion from brokers and the MPC, real-time observatory status updates, and diverse observation types. FOMO will integrate with robotic telescope resources such as the LCO Network and larger facilities through AEON. The FOMO platform will enable the solar system community to effectively prioritize efforts, minimize duplication, and make the most of limited follow-up resources. In this talk, I will give an overview of the system and the current status of development.
