The BRIXIIS observatory is a privat astronomical observatory that you can find in Kruibeke, Belgium. About 10 km South of Antwerp near the river 'De Schelde”. The observatory is running an operated by me (Erik Bryssinck)

BRIXIIS  was builded in 2005 and houses an 0.4-m diameter telescope on a 10Micron GM2000 Qci mount.  The used CCD-camera is a SBIG ST10-XME with CFW10 filter-wheel with UBVRI filters.

In the same year, a couple of months before starting of building the observatory,I started with observing comets and do afrho-measurements on comets in collaboration for CARA-team of Italy.

The observatory was started with a program for Minor planets (astrometry) in 2009 and the observatory was allocated with observatory-code B96 by the minor planet center on april 2009.

The main work for BRIXIIS observatory is:
-    Afrho measurements of comets in collaboration for CARA-project
-    Cometary astrometry
-    Confirmation of new Near Earth Objects to improve the calculation of the orbits.
