GMAN
(Global Microlensing Alert Network)
(collaboration to alert on microlensing transients)
GMAN (for Global Microlensing Alert Network)
was a 1990s collaboration including a number telescopes world-wide,
transferring images to a central site for automatic
detection of gravitational microlensing transients,
with automatic notifications to interested parties,
presumably to carry out immediate follow-up observations.
A goal was the identification of MACHOs.
