Takahashi TOA-150 - Chile

The “TOA” is the 6” big brother to the 4” FSQ-106 and the first of 2 installed in the Atacama region of northern Chile. Since its deployment in July 2019, the TOA-150 has proven a prolific producer of high-quality image data due to its superb optics and the abundance of clear, still nights for which Chile is renowned. In its first year of production the TOA produced more than 800 hours of image data covering 55 completed images.
