The Katzman Automatic Imaging Telescope (KAIT) is an automated telescope used in the search for supernovae. The telescope had a first light in 1998, and is a noted robotic telescope. It had first recorded data in August 1996, and was formally dedicated late that year. It was used for the Lick Observatory Supernova Search. The KAIT is a computer-controlled reflecting telescope with a 76 cm mirror and a CCD camera to take pictures. It is located at the Lick Observatory near San Jose, California. KAIT can take close to 100 images per hour and observe about 1000 galaxies a night.
