+
+[NSF NOIRLab](https://noirlab.edu/science/) is the US national center for ground-based, nighttime optical astronomy. Through its five programs - 
+[Cerro Tololo Inter-American Observatory (CTIO)](https://noirlab.edu/science/programs/ctio), the 
+[Community Science and Data Center (CSDC)](https://noirlab.edu/science/programs/csdc), the [International 
+Gemini Observatory](https://noirlab.edu/science/programs/gemini-observatory), 
+[Kitt Peak National Observatory (KPNO)](https://noirlab.edu/science/programs/kpno), and 
+[Vera C. Rubin Observatory](http://science) — NOIRLab serves as a 
+focal point for community development of innovative scientific programs, the exchange of ideas, and creative 
+development. 
+
+Many NOIRLab facilities and projects, including the 4.1-meter SOAR Telescope, the International Gemini 
+Observatory, the Víctor M. Blanco 4-meter Telescope, and the 
+[ANTARES Broker system](https://noirlab.edu/public/projects/antares/), are crucial components for 
+time domain science in the Vera C. Rubin Observatory era. [NOIRLab participation in the AEON Network](https://noirlab.edu/public/projects/aeon/) 
+contributes to an efficient and accessible ecosystem for our communities.
+
+NOIRLab is also encouraging the wider adoption of AEON compatibility through the [Rubin In-Kind Program’s 
+contributed telescope facilities](https://www.lsst.org/scientists/in-kind-program/telescope-resources).
