The VERITAS telescopes now operate as a stellar intensity interferometer using high-speed PMTs, 250 MS/s continuous digitizers, and White Rabbit clock synchronization for stellar diameter measurements.
Also, telescope time is generally available during the full Moon when IACTs observatories typically do not per-form VHE gamma-ray observations
