Nordic Optical Telescope

The Nordic Optical Telescope (NOT) is a 2.5m telescope for observations at optical and infrared wavelengths. The telescope is located  at the summit of the island of La Palma, Canary Islands, Spain and sits rights at the edge of a huge volcanic crater called 'La Caldera de Taburiente'. The web camera overlooks the crater, and at the horizon two of the other Canary islands are visible: Tenerife and Gomera.
