Sure it is.
Objective: Independent of any individuals's wishes, opinions or desires.
Morality: Code of conduct.
Objective Morality: A code of conduct that is independent of any individual's wishes, opinions or desires.
Fits perfectly.

Familiarize yourself with Hume's is-ought problem, you ignorant lout. That issue is the one any morality that claims to be scientific must contend with and resolve and so far none have been able to. And by the way, laws are not the same thing as morality.
