HATPI

A new lens on the universe

High-precision imaging of the full night sky

The HATPI ProjectLearn More

In a single 45 second exposure, the HATPI instrument
observes the full night sky, in all directions, from the
zenith down to an elevation angle of 35 degrees, at a
spatial resolution of 20 arcseconds per pixel. The key
science aim of HATPI is to explore the variable sky,
including studying astrophysical transient events (cosmic
explosions), transiting exoplanets, variable stars, and
moving objects (near-Earth asteroids). HATPI is located at
Las Campanas Observatory in the Atacama Desert of
Chile | -29.010486, -70.701080
