About
NARIT is responsible for research in Astronomy and Astrophysics in Thailand. Thai National Observatory (TNO) with 2.4m Telescope, located on the highest mountain in Thailand, at 2450m above the mean sea level, serves as the main workhorse for the Thai astronomers as well as international collaborators.
Apart from TNO, NARIT has been in the process of setting up a network of robotic telescopes worldwide at some of the best locations available. These include 0.6-0.7 m telescopes at Cerro Tololo Inter-American Observatory in Chile, Gaomeigu Observatory in People’s Republic of China, Siding Spring Observatory in Australia, Sierra Remote Observatories in the USA, and at a location yet to be selected in South Africa.
This Thai Robotic Telescope Network (Thai Robonet) will provide schools, universities and research institutes in Thailand with opportunities to observe objects with time-variability, asteroids, etc., 24 hours a day from both Northern and Southern Hemispheres. A PlaneWave 0.7m telescope (CDK700) was installed at SRO in December 2015 and has become part of this network since. It is expected that the magnificent facilities and staff provided by SRO will help our observations to be as smooth as possible during our presence there for years to come.
