The Navy Prototype Optical Interferometer (NPOI) is an astronomical interferometer operated by the United States Naval Observatory Flagstaff Station, in collaboration with the Naval Research Laboratory and The Lowell Observatory. The facility is located on Anderson Mesa about 15 miles southeast of Flagstaff, Arizona. More information on how NPOI works can be found at the new NPOI webpage . In 2009 NPOI began to finalize the acceptance of four, 1.8m aperture optical-infrared telescopes to include in the array, and tremendously increase its fainter-star performance. In November 2010, acceptance was complete, and procedures have been undertaken to install the four telescopes into the existing Y-shaped array.
