The Observatorio del Teide welcomes SONG: The Stellar Observations Network Group

Abstract: The Stellar Observations Network Group (SONG) is an international network project aiming to place eight 1-m robotic telescopes around the globe, with the primary objectives of studying stellar oscillations and planets using ultra-precision radial velocity measurements. The prototype of SONG is scheduled to be installed and running at the Observatorio del Teide by Summer 2011. In these proceedings we present the project, primary scientific objectives, and instrument, and discuss the observing possibilities for the Spanish community.
