The LBTAO and MagAO projects got their time yesterday at AO4ELT3. The day started with Armando giving an overview of ASM development and status, and their future potential for ELTs.

Then Laird presented the results of our recent commissioning runs. It went over well, and lots of people seem genuinely impressed.

Later, Phil gave an update on the LBTI (blog here).

Simone also gave a nice talk on plans for a pyramid wavefront sensor on the GMT.

After the business was done for the day, we headed to the Palazzo Corsini for the conference dinner.

Claire Max declared it the best conference dinner in history, and she left before they got out the Grappa. Congrats to Simone and the whole conference team.
