abstract

We are building a next-generation laser adaptive optics system, Robo-AO-2, for the UH 2.2-m telescope that will deliver robotic, diffraction-limited observations at visible and near-infrared wavelengths in unprecedented numbers. The superior Maunakea observing site, expanded spectral range and rapid response to high-priority events represent a significant advance over the prototype. Robo-AO-2 will include a new reconfigurable natural guide star sensor for exquisite wavefront correction on bright targets and the demonstration of potentially transformative hybrid AO techniques that promise to extend the faintness limit on current and future exoplanet adaptive optics systems.

  • Analysis of Laser-Satellite Deconfliction for Astronomical Observatories astro-ph.IM · 2026-06-23 · unverdicted · none · ref 4 · internal anchor

    Analysis of laser-satellite deconfliction at three observatories quantifies how exposure durations and keep-out cones affect open-time percentages, compares target modes, and tracks growing satellite impacts.
