The Astronomical Hub: A Unified Ecosystem for Modern Astronomical Research
Abstract
We present the conceptual framework of the Astronomical Hub (AstroHub), a unified platform combining various optical instruments at a single observatory. Its major approach lies in arranging conditions for research groups to install telescopes and equipment and participate in joint projects. AstroHub is planned to integrate Virtual Observatory (VO) tools, FAIR data principles, and a telescope network to create a powerful and attractive ecosystem for both robust near-Earth object (NEO) monitoring and diverse deep space research. We provide an overview of the AstroHub development directions in the case study of the Assy-Turgen Observatory.
