Scientific paper

The Galileo project comprises the design, building, and operation of a 3.5-m Italian telescope, the main elements (diameter, mechanical stucture, active optics, etc.) of which consist of a duplication of the ESO New Technology Telescope (NTT). Modifications have been introduced in order to allow, beyond the f/11 Nasmyth foci, a prime focus f/2.2 station, a trapped f/6 focus, and a small Cassegrain f/20 facility. Other changes with respect to the NTT have been made to the control and data acquisition system, and to the service building.
