Description
The Square Kilometre Array (SKA) is moving rapidly from conceptual designs to tangible construction, with trenches being dug and dishes being installed. The highly anticipated AA0.5 milestone has produced the first image from the SKA-Low telescope demonstrating the system's operational viability; the system works! This significant accomplishment has provided invaluable insights, prompting a retrospective review of our control system. Since the control systems for both telescopes have a shared architecture, we are confident in our ability to produce the first image from SKA-Mid within this year, marking another critical milestone. This talk will delve into these key developments and showcase how the TANGO control system framework has been crucial in enabling the advancement of the Telescope Control System.
