The investigation of the Solar System bodies is traditional for astronomy in Bulgaria. New research possibilities, based on astronomical observations were opened with setting up the National Astronomical observatory - Rozhen. There are 3 optical telescopes as follows: 2m Ritchey-Chretién-Coudé telescope, 50cm/70cm Schmdit telescope and 60cm Cassegrain equipped with single channel photometer. All three telescopes, admittedly to a different extent, are used for observations of asteroids. Because of acute financial hardships continuing nowadays, while the main instrument for observations of asteroids (Schmidt telescope) was out of work. By joint efforts of Bulgarian Academy of Sciences, Institute of Physics, Scopje and a Space Frontier Foundation grant a new CCD camera for this telescope was purchased. A summary of the results is presented here and the possibilities for integration with colleagues from other countries will be discussed.
