Scientific paper

The Robotic Lunar Observatory (ROLO) is an automated telescope designed for low-resolution absolute photometry of the Moon. Separate CCD and HgCdTe array instruments with nearly identical fields of view of 35' x 35' are used to image the Moon and a set of standard stars during the two weeks surrounding each Full Moon. Wavelength selection from 350 nm to 2.4 microns is provided by 32 narrowband filters. Analysis of these Lunar data continue as part of NASA's Earth Observing System (part of the Earth Science Enterprise) spacecraft calibration program. Photometry of h and chi Persei was obtained as part of an instrument characterization program. Observations of other objects such as the Orion Nebula have also been made to explore the wide-field imaging potential of the ROLO instrumentation.
