The Bordeaux automatic meridian circle has been used for routine differential observations for three years. Current programs concern NPZT stars, faint nearby stars from the Gliese catalogue, Mars, Uranus, Neptune, Jupiter and Saturn satellites, and minor planets. From 1984 on, 5000 faint stars from the HIPPARCOS Input Catalogue will be observed.
