Last observation of the morning. Went to go see #M78 #TheCasperNebula - in the center of the image. In the image you can see the other #nebulas from top to bottom - #NGC2072 , #NGC2067 (right above M78), #LDN1627 (dark nebula above and right of M78), #NGC2064 […] [Original post on mastodon.social]

Forgot I also went to observe #c56 / #ngc246 #theskullnebula. #seestar #s50 #space #astronomy #amateur

Next up is a view of #c46 / #ngc2261 #hubblesvariablenebula. #seestar #s50 #space #astronomy #amateur

Went to go see the #vdb126 #nebula. This area is full of #DarkNebulas. #seestar #s50 #space #astronomy #amateur

Good Monday morning. Made it back from the Southern California trip yesterday. Was able to get the s50 set up for new observations last night. Starting out with a quick view of #c44 / #NGC7479 #thesupermangalaxy. #seestar #s50 #space #astronomy #amateur

As I was leaving this morning the #moon decided to say good bye. #space #astronomy #amateur

Cloudy forecast this evening in my neighborhood, so this we’ll be a close to any sky observations for a while. Heading out tomorrow for a trip to Southern California. Here is the #moon as seen from the back yard today. #space #astronomy #amateur

Last image from the morning. Here is #ic2177 #theseagullnebula. #seestar #s50 #space #astronomy #amateur

Next on last nights observation, here is #ngc2175 #themonkeyheadnebula. #seestar #s50 #space #astronomy #amateur

Was looking at the sky atlas for what to add to the planner. Decided to look at #ic360 which is a #nebula in the Taurus constellation. #seestar #s50 #space #astronomy #amateur

Good Tuesday morning. Sharing the planned observations performed by the s50 last night. Starting with #SH2-158 / #ngc7538 #thenorthernlagoonnebula. #seestar #s50 #space #astronomy #amateur

But wait! There is more. Earlier this evening when I set up the s50 decided to view it with that mask attachment that I mentioned came with the dew shield. Decided later to do a comparison with what the Odyssey Pro would produce. Here are my observations of […] [Original post on mastodon.social]

Still have to get up early to go to work tomorrow, so this will be the final image with the Odyssey Pro for tonight. Here is #m110 #galaxy. #unistellar #odysseypro #space #astronomy #amateur

Last of the 3 #nebula observations form the Odyssey Pro - #m16 - #theeaglenebula. #unistellar #odysseypro #space #astronomy #amateur

Another #cluster observation from this evening. Here is #m11 - #thewildduckcluster. #unistellar #odysseypro #space #astronomy #amateur

Good Monday evening. Set up both the s50 and the Odyssey Pro. Let’s start with some observations from this evening from the Odyssey Pro. Here is #M92 #star #cluster. #unistellar #odysseypro #space #astronomy #amateur

Last image to be shared this morning. Here is #NGC7331 #thedeerlickgroup and friends. There are 14 galaxies in this image. Breakdown to come in upcoming post. #seestar #s50 #space #astronomy #amateur

Continuing with the #nebula observations that were part of a previous mosaic, here is #IC410 #thetadpolenebula. #star #cluster #ngc1893 located at the center and helps form this nebula. #seestar #s50 #space #astronomy #amateur

I have been doing mosaics of this (and the follow) objects. Decided to do long duration observations. On each one individually. Here is #c31 #ic405 #theflamingstarnebula. #seestar #s50 #space #astronomy #amateur

Here are some results from the s50’s planned observations from last night. Starting with #ngc1491 #thefossilfootprintnebula. #seestar #s50 #space #astronomy #amateur

Last image for the Odyssey Pro from last night. Here is another observation of #NGC5907 #thesplintergalaxy. #unistellar #odysseypro #space #astronomy #amateur

Here is an observation of #saturn from last night. #unistellar #odysseypro #space #astronomy #amateur

Good Monday morning. From last night’s observations with the Odyssey Pro, here is #m13 - #theherculesglobularcluster. #unistellar #odysseypro #space #astronomy #amateur

Continuing on the nebulas, here is #M57 - #theringnebula. I have commented before that I think the unprocessed image looks better on an earlier post. #unistellar #odysseypro #space #astronomy #amateur

Since the s50 has been set in some long duration observations, it will be mostly the Odyssey Pro tonight. Here is the #m27 - #thedumbbellnebula. #unistellar #odysseypro #space #astronomy #amateur

Good Sunday evening. Set both the s50 and Odyssey Pro out this evening to get some images. Started out with the #moon. #unistellar #odysseypro #space #astronomy #amateur #seestar #s50

Last image from the Odyssey Pro for this morning. Unfortunately the sky became too light for the telescope to continue. Here is #m102 #thespindlegalaxy. #unistellar #odysseypro #space #astronomy #amateur

Last image of the morning for the s50. Tried to see #24p/Schaumasse #comet. It can’t tell from this image where it is, but I assume it has to be in the middle somewhere. This comment is supposed to be its brightest in January. #seestar #s50 #space #astronomy #amateur

From the Odyssey Pro, here is #m67 #thekingcobracluster. #unistellar #odysseypro #space #astronomy #amateur

As you can see there was plenty of observations today. Here is another one by the s50 - #c21 / #NGC4449 #galaxy. Here is where I noticed the dew shield had slipped off the telescope. #seestar #s50 #space #astronomy #amateur

Thought I was only imaging the #M100 #Galaxy. As I am reviewing the image before this post, noticed there are 5 more galaxies that can be seen. Starting at the galaxy that seems to be at 45 degrees and going clockwise - #NGC4312 / #NGC4328 / #NCG4323 / #IC 78 […] [Original post on mastodon.social]

Continuing with Observations from the Odyssey Pro, here is #M101 - #thepinwheelgalaxy. #unistellar #odysseypro #space #astronomy #amateur

Going to do a comparison between the s50 and Odyssey Pro once here are #m65 / #m66 / #ngc3628 #galaxies - aka #theleotriplet. First and third images are from the s50, while the second and forth are from the Odyssey Pro. #unistellar #odysseypro #space #astronomy #amateur #seestar #s50

Also brought out the Odyssey Pro once I woke up this morning. Starting with a trio of galaxies - #m105 / #ngc3371 / #ngc3373 #galaxies. #unistellar #odysseypro #space #astronomy #amateur

Another new #nebula observation for me. Here is #c9 / #Sh2-155 #thecavenebula. #seestar #s50 #space #astronomy #amateur

Another of the images from last night. #IC417 #TheSpiderNebula. #seestar #s50 #space #astronomy #amateur

Very interesting how the s50 denoising was able to pull out this image of #NGC7814 / #c43 #thelittlesombrerogalaxy. #seestar #s50 #space #astronomy #amateur

Decided to go to see #vdb31 which is a Reflection Nebula with Dark Clouds. #seestar #s50 #space #astronomy #amateur

Returned to #NGC6995 #theeasternveilnebula to catch a portion of it know as #thebatnebula. #seestar #s50 #space #astronomy #amateur

Next on the observation list, here is #ngc1275 / #C24 #perseusagalaxy. #seestar #s50 #space #astronomy #amateur

Good Sunday morning. Continuing with the observations from last night. Decided to go see #NGC7331 #thedeerlickgroup again. Decided that tonight will spend more time here as there is more that the 5 galaxies that you can see in the center. #seestar #s50 #space #astronomy #amateur

Next observation from tonight, #ngc7662 / #c22 #thebluesnowballnebula. There was this accessory that came with the dew shield I bought for the s50. Put some thread through it and look at the effect on the stars. #seestar #s50 #space #astronomy #amateur

Good Saturday evening. Set the s50 outside. Need to figure out what to see tonight. Here as a shot of the #moon. #seestar #s50 #space #astronomy #amateur

Last images of this morning. Decided to compare the quality of images of #ic405 #theflamingstarnebula between the s50 and Odyssey Pro. The s50 is better for nebulas for sure. #unistellar #odysseypro #space #astronomy #amateur #seestar #s50

Sharing some observations of #Jupiter and its moons. Different views by the s50 and the Odyssey Pro. First image you cannot make out details of the planet but you can see the moon. In the second image you can details of Jupiter and only can see one of […] [Original post on mastodon.social]

After finishing the imaging for the previous mosaic, headed to see #ic443 #thejellyfishnebula. #seestar #s50 #space #astronomy #amateur

Sharing a new version of my #Mosaic #AEAurigae & #NGC1893. At the bottom left of the image NGC 1893 is an open cluster in the constellation Auriga. The #nebula around is is #IC410 #TheTadpoke#Nebula. At the upper right side is #IC405 which known as the […] [Original post on mastodon.social]

Woke up early enough to take the Odyssey Pro out as well. Here is a view of #ngc457 #theowlcluster. #unistellar #odysseypro #space #astronomy #amateur

Good Saturday morning. Was able to set the s50 out last night so have some images to share this morning. Starting with #SH2-171 #theteddybearnebula. #seestar #s50 #space #astronomy #amateur

Been busy at work so could not post this operation till tonight. Here is a new observation of #M45 #ThePleiadesStarCluster. The s50 was out there all night and this observation is 586 images at 20 second exposures in total. Captures all the Pleiades plus the […] [Original post on mastodon.social]
