Home / Telescopes / Antalya / TUG100 TUG100 Telescope As Türkiye's largest investment in fundamental science, forming the space sciences ecosystem, we are an advanced research infrastructure founded in partnership between Atatürk University and TÜBİTAK.
Due to its wide field of view, research projects on current topics are carried out, such as photometry in crowded star fields, planetary research outside the Solar System (exoplanets), and small bodies within the Solar System.
