About the subject

Astronomical Observatory Institute of Adam Mickiewicz University (AOI AMU) is a leading institution in Poland in satellite dynamics and near Earth asteroid research.The Observatory participates in the SSA Programme, car-rying out various research and development projects. The Observatory parti-cipates in satellite dynamics research since the dawn of space era. Two of our instruments, PST1 telescope in Borowiec and PST2/RBT in Arizona (Fig. 3), have been participating in the SSA Programme for several years. The latest accomplishment in this area is PST3 – a unique, heterogenous cluster of 5 telescopes.
