凯克二号自然导星 (NGS) 自适应光学 (AO) 设施于 1999 年 2 月 4 日晚首次亮光。在第一次尝试闭合 AO 环时，图像半高全宽 (FWHM) 在 H 波段（1.65 微米波长）从 0.6 角秒变为 0.04 角秒，斯特列尔比为 25%。 AO 系统于 1999 年 8 月正式成为凯克科学设施； 2000 年上半年计划举办 30 个科学之夜。本文的主要目的是展示望远镜第一年的成果。
First light for the Keck II Natural Guide Star (NGS) Adaptive Optics (AO) facility was on the night of February 4, 1999. On the firs attempt at closing the AO loops the image full-width- at-half-maximum (FWHM) went from 0.6 to 0.04 arcsec at H-band (1.65 micrometer wavelength), with a Strehl ratio of 25%. The AO system became an officially scheduled Keck science facility in August 1999; 30 science nights are scheduled in the first half of 2000. The primary purpose of this paper is to present results from this first year at the telescope.
