BRIXIIS Observatory activities

During a short period of clear sky, i could observe comet C/2023 A3 and spectroscopic observations of Be-star: gam Cas for h-alpha region and HeI emission @ 6678 Angstrom.

cloud-free sky but with high humidity, low transparency and a bit of fogging, I still opened the observatories for comet observations and capture spectra in High resolution. Comets that were observed are: 43P, 130P, 190P, … Read more

a rare clear night was the trigger to make comets and spectroscopic observations once again. I was able to observe 7 comets including: 54P, 493P, C/2021 S3, C/2022 N2, C/2022 U1, C/2023 R1, C/2023 V1. … Read more

It promises clear skies for the whole night and the moon phase is now about 0.35, so also less disturbing. I had prepared the observatory and set up a whole programme of observations. However, around … Read more

This evening, i could obtain some spectra and some comets during this short night. Comets that could be observed are: C/2019 T4, C/2020 R7, C/2021 S3, C/2022 U1. With the LHiReSS spectrograph i could obtain … Read more

the nights are now about the shortest of the year. It only gets really dark around 0:30UT. It was pretty much clear, with a cloud here and there. The 95% moon was interfering though, resulting … Read more

nights are getting very short and I could only start observations of comets and spectroscopy of Be stars around 11pm. Comets I observed are: 29P, C/2023 A3, C/2023 H5. The nearly full moon is quite … Read more

after the clouds disappeared it cleared completely during the evening. I was able to start comet observations. comets observed are: 65P, 362P, C/2021 T4, C/2023 A3. Spectroscopic observations which also made of Be stars in … Read more

the evening began with clear skies. At this altitude, nights get very short and it does not get dark until around 22:30 local time. Unfortunately an hour later, clouds drifted in and it became completely … Read more
