Description
The Big Bear Solar Observatory (BBSO) located in Big Bear Lake, California is operated by the New Jersey Institute of Technology (NJIT). Our main interest is the physics of the Sun and we observe solar phenomena with our dedicated telescopes and instruments. In addition to our own instruments we host an important helioseismology experiment: a GONG telescope from the Global Oscillation Network Group. The Center for Solar-Terrestrial Research at NJIT also studies the Sun in radio wavelengths at the Owens Valley Radio Observatory.
