Abstract
HETDEX has been taking data for over a year and the first internal data release is planned for April. With about 8% of the survey completed, we already have a data base of over 200,000 spectral detections and 14,000 continuum source detections. Science Working Groups on Cosmology, Large-Scale Structure and the Intergalactic Medium, Galaxies and AGN, and Stars have formed. Everyone at UT has the right to join. If you are not already involved, this is the time. We will present updates on the organization, observations, data reduction, plans for the data release, and plans for science exploitation.
The basic documents outlining the current project organization can be found at UT Box:
