SONG (Stellar Observations Network Group) is a global network of 1-m class
robotic telescopes that is under development. The SONG prototype will shortly
be operational at Observatorio del Teide, Tenerife, and first light is expected
by December 2011. The main scientific goals of the SONG project are
asteroseismology of bright stars and follow-up and characterization of
exo-planets by means of precise measurements of stellar surface motions and
brightness variations. We present the Tenerife SONG node and its instruments.
