This semester the available time offered via INAF-TAC is 52 nights. See at the bottom for a detailed schedule breakdown. See below for the additional 20 nights available at NOT telescope. REM telescope is not offered for this semester.

Recommended mode is service, where TNG staff astronomers will perform the observations in the scheduled nights. The queuing mode is not offered. We will be accepting (few) DDT-like proposals during the whole semester, which will be judged in few days by TNG staff and INAF-TAC. Service mode will be the only modality for these observations.

TNG is a 3.58m optical/infrared telescope located at Roque de Los Muchachos Observatory in the island of La Palma (Canary Island). Its primary mirror is corrected by Active Optics and it is equipped with instruments for imaging and spectroscopy, spanning the optical and near infrared wavelengths range.
Four instruments are now offered: Giano, Harps-N, NICS and Dolores.
