This report offers a short description of observational facilities used at the 6-meter optical telescope BTA of the Special Astrophysical Observatory of the Academy of Sciences of the USSR.

The purposes of the report:

  1. - to give an idea on the general strategics for the development of the observational facilities of the BTA;

  2. - to present the principle information on the achieved observational possibilities. The first point may prove to be useful for the projects of Very Large Telescopes (VLT), that are discussed at this meeting.
