Lasair Blog:

Please be sure to follow the Lasair Blog. It is a collection of articles on how to use Lasair, the science our users are doing, and Lasair-focussed events. Please “watch” this page so you get an email whenever a new post appears – just click on the bell-shaped icon at the top right, and choose the “Watching” option.

Lasair Support:

We really value feedback, especially from our users. Please ask your question or report your bug at Lasair Support This way, the answer is already there when somebody else has the same issue.

However, if you really want to send email to the team, use lasair-help at mlist.is.ed.ac.uk.

Community Resources:

Lasair curates a collection of filters, watchlists, and watchmaps that the team feels gives value to our community. If you have a suggestion for inclusion in this list, please make your resource public, and suggest it to us through Lasair Support or by email.

There will be occasional meetings, tutorials, and hackathons about using Lasair. These will be announced at the Lasair blog, so please follow!
