Piszkéstető Station

The Piszkéstető Station or Piszkéstető Mountain Station is an astronomical observatory in Mátraszentimre in Mátra Mountains, about 80 km northeast of Hungary's capital Budapest. It is a station of Konkoly Observatory, first built in 1958. It has the observatory code 461 and 561 for being used by the Szeged University and Konkoly Observatory, respectively.

Instruments
The observatory features four telescopes:
 * 60/90/180-centimetre Schmidt telescope since 1962
 * 50-centimetre Cassegrain telescope since 1966
 * 1-metre Ritchey–Chrétien telescope since 1974
 * 40-centimetre Ritchey–Chrétien telescope since 2010

Discovery of 2022 EB5
Piszkéstető Station discovered asteroid, which later impacted earth. It is only the fifth asteroid in history to have been discovered prior to impact. This puts the station in a very short list of observatories that have achieved this feat. Several asteroids impact earth every year with enough force to be detected by infrasound sensors designed to detect detonation of nuclear devices, but the vast majority of impacts are unpredicted and occur without warning. Piszkéstető Station discovered this asteroid before it impacted.

Discovery of 2024 BX1
2024 BX1 was discovered at the station a few hours before it entered the Earth's atmosphere near Berlin on January 21, 2024.

Honors
The minor planet 37432 Piszkéstető was named after the station, where it was discovered by astronomers Krisztián Sárneczky and Zsuzsanna Heiner in January 2002.
