About me

I'm Róbert Szakáts, an astronomer working at the Konkoly Observatory. This is my personal webpage. You can find some information about me here, and also some of the projects I'm working on.

RC80 Scheduler

Here you can find the documentation of the scheduler for the RC80 telespcope at Piszkéstető. This software is a python code written around the astroplan package to provide input for the automatic observing pipeline.

ELTE LAB

This page is dedicated for the ELTE Particle, Nuclear and Astrophysics Lab, Astronomical observational exercises at Piszkéstető. The aim of the laboratory is to acquaint students with the basics of astronomical observations and instrumentation, and in addition, with the method of basic processing of digital astronomical measurements. On this webpage every preliminary information and file can be found.
