SPECULOOS (Search for habitable Planets EClipsing ULtra-cOOl Stars) is a project consisting of SPECULOOS Southern Observatory (SSO) at the Paranal Observatory in Chile and SPECULOOS Northern Observatory (SNO) at the Teide Observatory in Tenerife.[1][2]
The SSO consists of four Ritchey–Chrétien telescopes of 1-metre primary aperture, made by ASTELCO. Each telescope is equipped with a NTM-1000 robotic mount and will search for Earth-sized exoplanets around 1000 ultra-cool stars and brown dwarfs.[3][4][5][6][7] As of June 2019, the SNO consists of one telescope, but more might be added in the future with up to three telescopes for SNO.[8] SPECULOOS is complemented by SAINT-EX and TRAPPIST.[9]
