Abstract

On 2018 March 27, a 1-m telescope was installed at the SNU Astronomical Observatory (SAO) which is a newly constructed building at the site where the previous Kwanak Observatory (Old observatory; 구천문대) stood. A series of test observations have been performed on this telescope, and we report the first results from the test observations in this poster. In particular, we present seeing values, limiting magnitudes and sample images taken with a $4k{\times}4k$ CCD camera ($21^{\prime}{\times}21^{\prime}$).
