Welcome to the
UnderOak Observatory Website!
You have
connected to a website that is dedicated to
the purely scientific and artistic endeavors
of a dedicated amateur astronomer. UnderOak is a
privately owned backyard observatory (SkyShedPOD XL3) in Morris
County (NJ) that has been in operation since
Sept 2007. This website contains a wide range
of solar, lunar, planetary and
deep-sky images taken at the same North Jersey
location over the past 7+ years.
Equally
important, along with presenting the light
curves produced from my photometric (BRVI)
study of variable star systems and minor
planets, the underlying phased differential
magnitude data are available for public
use. The acquisition of a Deep Sky
Spectrograph (DSS-7) has expanded the repetoir
of investigations that can be made on stars,
planetary objects, and nebulae. Requests for data or
images as well
as comments or questions about the website
contents can be sent directly to mail@underoakobservatory.com.
