The NOAO Mid-Scale Observatories

We describe present and future capabilities of the Mid-Scale Observatories (MSO) of the new national center merging NOAO, Gemini Observatory and LSST Operations. MSO is comprised of Cerro Tololo Interamerican Observatory (CTIO) and the Kitt Peak National Observatory (KPNO). Telescopes at both sites currently operate on a mix of public and private funding. Recent upgrades have equipped the MSO 4-m class telescopes to perform world-class surveys in diverse areas of astrophysics, from dark energy to exoplanets.
