Abstract
Auxiliary telescopes in the neighbourhoods of a main telescope equippe d with an LGS can provide, in principle, full sky coverage. The auxili ary telescopes, however, should be able to move around in order to acq uire a useful natural guide star (NGS), and to track the LGS; comoving with the scientific target. Detailed expressions and results of numer ical simulations are given.
