SUMMARY:MOSAIC: Making the MOSt of the ELT
DESCRIPTION:MOSAIC: Making the MOSt of the ELT\nDr. Ruben Sanchez\n\nMOSAIC
  is the proposed visible and near-infrared multi-object spectrograph 
 (MOS) for ESO’s forthcoming ELT.  The instrument is currently i
 n the initial project stage known as Phase A. When operational MOSAIC
  will give the ELT the ability to obtain spectra for large samples of
  faint astronomical sources which are simply out of reach of ESO&rsqu
 o;s current facilities--from stars at the very heart of the Milky Way
 , out to the most distant galaxies at the edge of the observable Univ
 erse. I will discuss the top science cases for MOSAIC and identify th
 e key technical requirements for each case. I will then present the i
 nstrument concept design and architecture that comply with these requ
 irements, and will end by outlining the next steps for the project.
