Scientific paper

SONG is a Danish-led initiative to construct a global network of 1m telescopes devoted to carrying out time-series observations for asteroseismology and to search for extra-solar planets. To pursue these goals the telescopes of the network will be equipped with a high- resolution spectrograph for measuring very precise radial velocities, and with a CCD camera for carrying out photometry of microlensing events observed towards the Galactic Bulge. Currently, funding has been obtained for construction of a full prototype network node. In this contribution we shall describe the current status of the project, and the instrumental setup as well as the software code needed for measuring precise radial velocities through the use of an iodine cell as velocity reference.
