BrySky Camera Network

This site is for my BrySky AllSky Camera Network.  It is my hope that I will be able to build a network of allsky cameras in various locations to capture time lapse videos of the night sky.  Please visit this site for more updates.

Date and time image was captured

I.S.S. visible pertains to the International Space Station and if it is currently visible at the time this image was taken.  I.S.S. may not be visible in the actual picture since the camera does not capture full 180 degrees, so the object could be out of the field of view.

Below I.S.S. indicator shows the current phase of the moon.

Detailed data is provided regarding metrics of focus, exposure and gain used by the camera while capturing the image.  Camera temperature is the temp of the actual camera, not air temperature.  Many factors can affect this temperature reading.
