Designed for Research Astronomy
Slooh advanced accounts provide access to our telescopes and research-grade CCD cameras located at Slooh’s northern and southern hemisphere observatories.
Australian Observatory
Launching in mid 2024, Slooh's new Australian observatory will extend Slooh's live coverage to 24 hours per day. The observatory, located a stone's throw from the world-class Siding Spring Observatory, will house a new research-grade Half Meter telescope.
Chile Observatory
Slooh’s southern hemisphere observatory, in partnership with the Catholic University, features three telescopes offering complete coverage of the rich southern skies.
Canary Islands Observatory
Slooh’s flagship observatory features six telescopes and is situated at 9,000 feet at the Institute of Astrophysics of the Canary Islands, home to the largest optical telescope in the world. The time zone shift makes daytime astronomy possible in the United States.
Our Capabilities
Slooh is Research Ready
Used by Researchers Worldwide
Asteroid Detection + Monitoring
Slooh members have submitted over 27,000 orbital element sets for 5,000+ objects to the Minor Planet Center
RR Lyrae Research
Slooh members, like Michelle Park, have published using Slooh data. Her study investigated the relationship between the metallicity and resulting changes in the light curves of non-Blazhko RRab Lyraes
Space Domain Awareness
Slooh members participate in the Space Domain Academy to track satellites, debris, and spacecraft.
