HATNet Project

The Hungarian Automated Telescope Network ( HATNet ) Project is a network of six small fully automatic HAT telescopes. The scientific goal of the project is the discovery and characterization of extrasolar planets and the discovery and tracking of bright variable stars. The network is operated by the Harvard - Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics.

HAS stands for Hungarian -made Automated Telescope because it was developed by a small group of Hungarians who met at the Hungarian Astronomical Association. The project began in 1999 and is fully operable since May 2001.
