G-CLEF
(GMT - CfA Large Earth Finder, GMT-consortium Large Earth Finder, Large Earth Finder)
(spectrograph on the GMT)
G-CLEF (for GMT - CfA Large Earth Finder
or GMT-consortium Large Earth Finder)
is a visible light spectrograph planned for the Giant Magellan Telescope (GMT)
suitable for general purposes, but aimed at
the study of extra-solar planets, e.g., determining
radial velocities and studying atmospheres
through transmission spectroscopy.
GMT is currently projected to see first light in 2029,
and G-CLEF is to be one of its initial set of science instruments,
thus should see first light after that.
