Rock Tree Sky is expanding our astronomy exploration. We have been building an Exploradome deluxe observatory that will extend our existing astronomy outreach and support learner engagement in the wonders of the Universe through the art of astrophotography.
We are working with our friend and mentor, Martin Cohen to set up the observatory under the dark skies of Upper Ojai in the center of our 4 acre field. Martin is assisting us in furnishing the observatory with a high quality refractor, mount, and camera. A professional photographer with many years of astrophotography experience, Martin's enthusiasm for our project is a blessing. You can view his astrophotography catalog here.
Our director, Jim Bailey, is an amateur astronomer with over 20 years of educational outreach experience. He currently runs a 10" Skywatcher Dob, a vintage Celestron 8" SCT, and a Unistellar eVscope2.
