The image navigator allows you to visualize and interact with the astronomical images taken with the facilities of the Observatorio Astronómico de Javalambre.
First light instruments have been designed to exploit the survey capabilities of the OAJ telescopes. In particular, two wide field cameras have been developed for the JAST80 and the JST250. The camera of JST250 is one of the largest astronomical cameras in the world.
The Observatorio Astrofísico de Javalambre (OAJ) is an astronomical facility located at the Sierra de Javalambre (Teruel), in particular at El Pico del Buitre, 1957 meters above the sea level, close to the village Arcos de las Salinas.
The two first main projects defined to be conducted at the OAJ are J-PLUS (Javalambre Photometric Local Universe Survey) and J-PAS (Javalambre Physics of the Accelerating Universe Astrophysical Survey). J-PLUS and J-PAS are unprecedented photometric sky surveys of several thousands of square degrees visible from Javalambre.
