    LSST first light

    Wikipedia says first light is scheduled for 2019.
    Does anyone know the month? Do I have to wait 13 or 24 months?

    Wikipedia is wrong. The slideshow citation is from 2012 and has the start of 2020 for engineering first light but as we know building projects tend to get longer. The online and presumably more up to date LSST Project Schedule has engineering first light in the middle of 2020.
