Joan Genebriera

Joan Genebriera

I am an engineer specialized in astronomical instrumentation and computer systems, with twenty years of experience in the practical teaching of Astronomy at the Science Museum of Barcelona, now CosmoCaixa. I built my first telescope, including the primary mirror a 15 cm Newtonian, at the age of 13. I have designed and built all kinds of telescopes and astronomical accessories and I have worked at the KVA observatory of Roque de los Muchachos (ORM) on the Canary Island of La Palma (Spain). From 2001 to mid-2018 I was director and owner of the Tacande observatory in La Palma. I am currently the director of the Astropriorat observatory in continental Spain

Image collections

Collections are a convenient way to save groups of observations for future reference. They may contain both your own observations and those from other observers. You can make your collections either private (visible only to you), or public (visible to all).
