Cosmic Adventures

Posted On August 14, 2020


Cosmic Adventures is an inreach program of Orange County Astronomers (ocastronomers.org). It is a two part portal.

One portal is for remote imaging through Las Cumbres Observatory telescopes. Members can request and download images, do simple image processing and share their images with other members.

The second portal is for more advanced observers. The International Astronomical Search Collaboration program (IASC) provides the data and software to do asteroid searches. We will be part of dozens of groups doing searches from all over the world. More advanced members can join the Institute for Student Astronomical Research (InStAR) program to do double star and exoplanet research.

The portal was designed by Dr. Doug Millar and Reza AmirAjormand of OCA with help from Dr. Carl Pennypacker and others.

The portal can be accessed -> here.
