Scientific paper

Near-IR adaptive optics can be used to compensate in real time for the atmosphere-induced 'seeing effects' of ground-based optical telescopes. These compensation techniques have been used to observe Pallas and Titan; attention is given to the system components and their current levels of performance, as well as anticipated performance improvements. Results obtained for the shapes of asteroids at different dates and features on Titan's disk are presented.
