Update on the Start of LIGO's 3rd Observing Run
Update September 2018: Read this update on the status of LIGO detectors and the start of O3
24 Apr 2018 -- LIGO's second observing run (O2) ended on , and preparations for the third observing run (O3) began shortly thereafter. The detector installation and commissioning program between O2 and O3 has generally been proceeding well at all the LIGO and Virgo detector sites. Along with this progress we have also incurred delays in the start of full interferometer commissioning. As as result, the start of O3 is currently projected to begin in early . Updates will be provided once the installation phase is complete and the commissioning phase has begun. An update on the engineering run prior to O3 will be provided by late summer .
