The observatory had a lot of mystique and we were all more than proud to work here,” says Liza. <\/p>\n

At the beginning, only Jorge Garc\u00eda was part of her team. Later, Jos\u00e9 Gallardo joined, and little by little, they began to take charge of data processing. “We started to support the development of the automatic processing of the data, learning every day from all the new and mind-blowing things that came into our hands,” recalls Liza.

And she also recalls situations of adversity, such as when our processing cluster was stopped for three months, generating an almost unmanageable accumulation of data to be reviewed, causing a change in the way Liza and her team work.

A huge flexibility for astronomers to observe the Universe, plus so many automated processes, despite the doubts and the challenge of implementing them,” reflects Liza.<\/p>\n
