Most of the images taken through the Herrett Telescope are available here. In most cases you will need a program that can read FITS format files to view these images. Most work in the observatory is done with Maxim DL. Many operators have CCDSoft available on loan from the observatory. Another option is a free plugin for Photoshop that I need to find and put up a link here. There need to be lots more links here.

There are a few files available in web browser compatible file formats.

All files on this site are owned by the Herrett Museum's Centennial Observatory. Permission is granted for non-commercial use. Commercial use requires an agreement with the museum. Or something like that... Chris?
