Abstract

Abstract Beginning of operation of the first Russian–Cuban Observatory telescope, a wide-field 20-cm robotic telescope installed at the observational site optical station in Havana, Republic of Cuba, is reported. The general view of the telescope is shown and attached equipment is described. The “first light” obtained using a 20-cm telescope is demonstrated and briefly discussed. Multi-task observational projects supposed to be conducted using mentioned RCO telescope are described. Russian–Cuban complexication scheme is described and some of its features are briefly discussed.
