We are currently requesting 1 half night per quarter for general solar system ToO follow up, which needs to be taken in a single half-night block. Typically need a few nights to arrange scheduling before follow up can occur. APO is a 3.5m, with an imager with 7.5 sq arcminute FOV (6 filters available), as well as other instruments. This follow up time is probably most useful to investigate new objects of particular interest (such as mini-moons, interstellar objects, or objects where we pick up new activity), but could also help clean up astrometry for batches of NEOs (especially if this occurs at the same time as another trigger). https://www.apo.nmsu.edu/

Lulin One-meter Telescope (LOT)

ToO can be requested for Solar-system follow-up. Most of the time LOT is equipped with Princeton Instrument's SOPHIA CCD (2k x 2k) with standard broadband filters, occasionally there will have instruments change. PS: Quan-Zhi can also trigger LOT ToO follow-up.

GROWTH-India

The GROWTH-India telescope is a 0.7m telescope with a 0.7 degree field of view. We can go to about 21st mag in g band in 5-10 min exposures (depending on observing conditions). Currently, Varun can be the contact person for NEA followups.
