The name for the final facility was changed to the James Clerk Maxwell Telescope. The telescope itself was operated by the Joint Astronomy Centre (JAC), from Hilo, Hawaii. From 1987 until March 2013 the telescope was funded by a partnership of the United Kingdom (55 per cent), Canada (25 per cent), and the Netherlands (20 per cent). In 2013 the ...

SASSy is one of the major "legacy surveys" on the James Clerk Maxwell Telescope. [6] It is the second-largest such legacy survey in terms of time on this telescope, and in terms of notional facility time is "worth" over £1 million. The project seeks to answer the following questions: Is there an undiscovered population of extreme luminosity ...

In 1987 the James Clerk Maxwell Telescope (JCMT) – also on Mauna Kea – was handed over to the ROE after the Rutherford Appleton Laboratory had completed its construction. The JCMT is a 15-metre diameter, millimetre- and sub-millimetre-wavelength telescope, which was run by a partnership of the UK, the Netherlands and Canada until 2014.
