Abstract

Since 2017, Institute of Astronomy of the Russian Academy of Sciences (INASAN) has been engaged in a collaborative effort with the Institute of Geophysics and Astronomy of the Republic of Cuba (IGA). During this period, an optical observation station of the international Russian–Cuban Observatory (RCO) has been established on the premises of the IGA in Havana. This station is equipped with a robotic 20-cm wide-field telescope. Observations are remotely operated in a collaborative mode by Russian and Cuban astronomers. In 2024, the Russian segment of the RCO has been established at the Kislovodsk Observatory of INASAN. The optical station includes a 50-cm telescope equipped with an astronomical camera for photometric observations and a medium-resolution spectrograph. Observations are carried out jointly by Russian and Cuban astronomers via remote access. In this paper, the optical complex’s equipment and the initial results of its operation in 2025 have been described.
