CCD Camera for Hercules spectrograph

University of Canterbury is planning to purchase a CCD camera for the HERCULES spectrograph at the University of Canterbury Mt John Observatory.
This project is to replace the obsolete CCD system with a state-of-the-art instrument. This is a critical for the UC Mt John Observatory and the UC seeks fit-for-purpose instrument of at least 10 years useful life.
This project supports UC research and teaching activities and improves our ability to generate revenue from additional research grants.
