Abstract EN

A robotic observatory has been setup in the south-west of Spain with the aim to study meteoroids interacting with the Earth's atmosphere and meteoroids impacting on the Moon's surface.

This is achieved by using an array of high-sensitivity CCD video cameras and three automated Schmidt-Cassegrain telescopes.

We summarize here the main characteristics of this new facility.
