Abstract
The first of the four atmospheric Cherenkov telescopes of the VERITAS array has been in operation at the Mt. Hopkins base camp since January 2005. The telescope has met all specifications. We present here a description of the technical performance, including calibration details and a summary of a preliminary analysis of Crab Nebula observations. The construction status of the complete VERITAS array is also discussed.
