Welcome to The Lozano Observatory

The Rosette Nebula - November 18th 2009

In Memory of My Grandmother -

 Alice T. Lozano

     The Lozano Observatory was founded by Robert and Lynn Lozano to increase interest in Astronomy.  Our mission is to help educate the general public in the areas of astronomy and astrophotography.   Do you want to learn a little more about Astronomy?  If so, you have come to the right place!  If you have a group that would like to visit our observatory please contact us: rlozano3@satx.rr.com 

      Our primary site is located in Spring Branch Texas on 6.35 acres at an altitude of 1,634 feet. Our telescopes are housed in an 8 foot diameter dome which is 12 feet above the ground at the top of a 12 inch diameter cement pier. In April 2010 we installed a new Astro-Physics Mach1 Mount which has  greatly enhanced our ability to take high quality CCD images.  

     Check out our site and learn a little bit about Astronomy, Telescopes and how to take amazing pictures of your favorite Deep Sky Objects!!
