Welcome to the Homepage of the Claustonberry Observatory.  Here you will find the astrophotography works collected at our observing site south of Marengo, Illinois, USA.

The Observatory started collecting images in the spring of 2013, and since then  has undergone many changes and upgrades.  Additional information about the observatory, as well as the equipment  and software employed, can be found in the ‘About Us‘ section of the website.

You can connect with us via Twitter, Youtube, or Flickr to view our extensive catalog of images over the previous years.
