Pan-STARRS Science Partners

Since the completion of the Pan-STARRS 1 Science Consortium Surveys in March 2014, Pan-STARRS has been operated by a new consortium of institutions, with NASA providing the bulk of the funding to continue and expand the search for potentially hazardous asteroids.

Prof. Stephen Smartt's teams at Queen's University Belfast and Oxford University are mining the transient stream for unusual transients as part of a large, multimessenger search.

The Young Supernova Experiment is a collaboration using supernovae discovered early in their explosive rise as a tool for improved cosmology measurements.

The Ultraviolet Near Infrared Optical Northern Survey is a collaboration of several teams to produce the deepest wide-optical survey of the northern hemisphere, partly in support of the Euclid satelite mission, but also driven by independent science goals.

Pan-SPEC is a NASA-funded project at UH to add wide-field spectroscopic capability to Pan-STARRS.
