RealTime SCGO Data

We’ve been here since 2002 with a datalogging weather station and visual observatory and have been adding equipment and functionality ever since. We have had some serious data flowing around here (Starlight Cascade Gardens & Observatory) with our astronomy projects. This is a fairly live and uptodate display of the SIDs, Allskycameras, RadioJove radio telescope, webcams, and weather station:

Allsky1 Camera System

(since 2019 Dec with V3, since 2007Jan with V2, since 2002 with V1)

V3: ZWO ASI 120MC and a Raspberry Pi 3b		 Allsky2 Camera System
(aka UWO allsky camera 10) (since 2012 June) is a low light video camera grabbing and digitizing 10-20 fps. Dusk to Dawn only.
