In Australia: the Anglo-Australian Observatory at Siding Spring
Mountain, Coonabarabran, New South Wales.

In Chile: a share in the European Southern Observatory
facilities which are the VLT at Cerro Paranal, ESO La Silla
and also 20% of the Gemini South telescope at Cerro Pachon.
(not Cerro Tololo, that's a US-only operation),

Philip
