The World's Largest Robotic Telescope
First responder to explosive and rapidly fading sources in the night sky. A 4-metre successor to the Liverpool Telescope.
Science Cases The TelescopeThe Liverpool Telescope (LT) is a fully robotic astronomical telescope owned and operated by the Astrophysics Research Institute of Liverpool John Moores University.
Sited at the Observatorio del Roque de los Muchachos on La Palma, it serves as a prototype for production-line 2-metre class telescopes. As the "first off the line", it continues to deliver rapid response data for transient astronomy.
The NRT project brings together leading institutions from across the globe, combining expertise in astronomy, engineering, and technology to push the boundaries of robotic telescope capabilities.
The NRT project is also made possible through the generous support of our funding partners.
