Cerro Tololo Inter-American Observatory

From left to right, the PROMPT-5, -3 and -2 telescopes. We have been using three 0.36-meter Schmidt-Cassegrain telescopes from Celestron while our final optics are being prepared. In September 2005, we will upgrade to six 0.41-meter Ritchey-Chrétien telescopes by RC Optical Systems.
