About the ORAS AllSkEye Camera
The ORAS AllSkEye Camera named "Luna" displays a wide-field image of the sky above the Oil Region Astronomy Learning Center. At night, when the moon is not out, Luna typically takes a 30 second exposure and the resulting image is updated here every 60 seconds. Luna can be used to check out the night sky from the comfort of your home, watch for meteorites or satellites, and is also helpful in assessing conditions when considering a visit to the Learning Center.
Please note that during the daytime hours, when the sun is out, the camera is too sensitive to take images. As a result the camera will only operate from sunset to sunrise.
Below is a sample image from Luna: The top of the image is in the southerly direction, and the bottom of the image is in the northerly direction. You can see the constellation Orion in the top-left region of the sample image.
