Description

The presentation discovers observational capabilities and limitations of Maidanak observatory. It provides detailed information about the two 60 cm Zeiss telescopes – NT-60 and ST-60 and cameras installed on their foci. Because of smaller aperture, these telescopes have magnitude limitations and are not suitable for observations of faint objects. Installation of a new fast telescope devoted to ToO observations is planned in the second half of this year. Successful and in-time installation of this telescope would provide good opportunity during the O4 observational run.
