A cloud of cold 85 Rb atoms was recently observed for the first time in Chile in a magneto optical trap using a Rb getter. We also observed cooling and trapping of the 87 Rb isotope. This experience represents a preliminary result for an ongoing effort to promote the experimental research in the field of quantum optics in Chile.
