While a number of remote controlled telescopes are in use today, AST@RHO is one of few which is controlled by a standard web browser interface rather than a specialized client program which must be installed on the user’s computer. Upon remote command, the computer system moves the AST@RHO telescope to selected coordinates in the sky, rotates the dome so that the slit opening does not obscure the view, and operates the CCD camera. In addition, the system will monitor weather conditions and close the dome as appropriate to avoid exposing the telescope to rain and high winds. The system allows viewing of the images as they are obtained as well as giving access to selected archived images. AST@RHO will allow UF undergraduate and graduate students to participate in the operation of a remotely controlled telescope. In addition, AST@RHO will provide an opportunity for cooperation between UF and college, middle school, and secondary school science classes around the state and the world. We have been contacted by educational groups in California, Hawaii, Europe, the Far East, and Russia who are also interested in cooperation on a global network of telescope for classroom instruction. Amateur astronomers will also have an opportunity to access the telescope images and carry out research projects. It is expected that full operation will begin in the fall semester of 2005.
