4MOST

(4-metre Multi-object Spectroscopic Telescope)
(spectrograph in development for VISTA telescope)

4MOST (for 4-metre Multi-object Spectroscopic Telescope) is an fiber-fed optical multi-object spectrograph planned for VISTA to replace its current camera. It intends to simultaneously obtain spectra for 2400 objects over a 4 square degree field. Construction is in progress and operation is expected in 2024.
