Maurice and Yoann Audejean, father and son, are amateur astronomers based in Chinon, France. They operate a Newtonian telescope with a 400 mm diameter and a focal length of 1800 mm.
Maurice has been practicing astronomy since the 1960s, and passed down his solid experience to his son Yoann during the 1990s. Since 2024, they have been pursuing their passion together, regularly participating in solar observations using the CLIMSO coronagraphs at the Pic du Midi de Bigorre observatory.

The Newtonian telescope with a diameter of 400 mm and a focal length of 1800 mm is shown opposite.
Their areas of interest:
Astronomical imaging, for the simple pleasure of capturing photographs of celestial objects.
Imaging for photometric and astrometric studies.
Some of their results are displayed on this website, in the Image Gallery.
Other instruments are used depending on their objectives, including:
70/700 refractor.
130/650 Newtonian telescope.
Seestar 50 telescop.
The choice of image acquisition devices also depends on their goals, including:
ZWO ASI 715 MC Planetary Camera.
ZWO ASI 676 MC Planetary Camera.
Seestar 50 telescop.
