With a 60-cm telescope at an outstanding site, it is possible to coordinate observations with larger telescopes and with satellites to provide monitoring of interesting objects. The University of Toronto Southern Observatory at Las Campanas, Chile, has been involved in several such programmes, in support of large telescopes at Tololo, La Silla, and Mauna Kea, in addition to the I.U.E., EXOSAT, and other satellites.
