Descripción
10 years after Gran Telescopio Canarias' First Light, GTC is producing science in a routinely manner but at the same time enhancing its capabilities with the continuous advent of new instruments at the facility. This contribution summarizes the current status of the night operation of the 10.4 m Gran Telescopio CANARIAS (GTC) and describe GTC short- and medium- term instrumentation plan, that will make possible to provide access up to six different instruments to the GTC-users community from middle 2018, largely enhancing the scientific return from the telescope.
