Evryscope-South Telescope
The Evryscope is a telescope array designed to open a new parameter space in optical astronomy, detecting short timescale events across extremely large sky areas simultaneously. The system averages 5000 images per night with ∼300,000 sources per image, and to date has taken over 3 millions images, totaling 250TB of raw data. The Evryscope consists of an array of 22 telescopes, which aims to find the rare events that require all-sky monitoring, including transiting exoplanets around exotic stars like white dwarfs and hot subdwarfs, stellar activity of all types within our Milky Way, nearby supernovae, and other transient events such as gamma-ray bursts and gravitational-wave electromagnetic counterparts.
