Each one of its institutes focuses on well defined and complementary research areas operating a number of facilities, such as telescopes and various sensing stations, located both in the Athens metro area as well as in various places all over Greece.

Its museum and historic telescopes are open to the public and they are being used for numerous outreach activities throughout the year.
