    What happened (or is going on) with PUEO or ADONIS? When they are decommissioned will I find them in ebay?

    Hey Markus

    As far as I know, ADONIS has been decommissioned a while ago. Its DM is currently in use somewhere at Meudon obs (I believe in SESAME).

    PUEO is still in operation. At least it's still listed as such in the CFHT website. It's been 13 years now! Probably the longest operating AO instrument (or would that be keck 1 AO, or Lick?).

    The ADONIS DM is currently being used with CANARY (MOAO ELT pathfinder on the WHT)
