Getting Access#

Warning

We allow everyone to have an account. Please don’t share your credentials with anyone.

Any astronomer with an observing proposal can have access. Principal Investigators (PIs) can also create users to be added as collaborators to their respective proposals.

The server is protected under a VPN connection that you can get from your Instrument Scientist or by any trusted contact you have at SOAR Telescope.

At the beginning of the semester all PIs are registered with their respective proposals. And they will receive an email that contains a link to set a safe password. Our backend does not allow simple or too common password. In fact you will get the following messages.

  • Your password can’t be too similar to your other personal information.

  • Your password must contain at least 8 characters.

  • Your password can’t be a commonly used password.

  • Your password can’t be entirely numeric.
