I'd say it's working. What about youse guys? 🌌🔭🦛

Post a duo.

Halloween came early this year, along with moons, Jupiter and adorable little frogs! Thank you so much @astropotamus.com for these wonderful 3D prints!!! 👻💀🎃🌕🐸

Black holes (a thread): cosmic monsters that swallow light itself. They're invisible, yet we can "see" them by how they bend space and time. But what really happens if you get too close? Let's fall in… 🌀🔭🦛 1/7

Life Hack: Planning #Astrophotography sessions around weather and celestial events improves organizational skills. It also improves your party conversation skills when you discuss the pros and cons of RAP, HRRR, NAM, GFS, and RDPS. #IYKYK

I'm so tired of the 0->100% "dick mode" people do in social media these days. I joined a Discord server for a piece of OSS software I use and asked a question. Got my answer, someone starts offering answers to questions I didn't ask, and I said, I wasn't looking for a discussion, thanks. 1/4

Did you know that the highest mountain discovered is the Olympus Mons on Mars? Its peak is 16 miles (25 km) high, making it nearly 3 times higher than Mount Everest.

"Lasers." 🌌🔭🦛

Life Hack: Replace movie night with a romantic evening of stargazing for a unique and memorable experience. Bring food and wine (or whatever) and have a nighttime picnic under the stars!

#Astrophotography isn't just about gear. Patience and practice are your best tools. And don't forget to ask questions. Others have probably had the same problem you're having. You can learn more at http://astropotamus.com/learn

Life Hack: Staring at starry skies and focusing on celestial beauty can reduce stress and anxiety. So can hot chocolate. Or bourbon. I don't judge.

Did you know that the Hubble Space Telescope is one of the most productive scientific instruments ever built? Astronomers using Hubble data have published more than 15,000 scientific papers. Those papers have been cited in other papers 738,000 times.

NGC 7000, also known as the North American Nebula. #Astrophotography by me using my #SVBONY SV503 102mm/f7 scope, 0.8X FF/FR, #PegasusAstro Focus Cube, #Optolong L-eNhance filter, #ZWO OAG with #ASI290MM Mini, #SkyWatcher EQ6R Pro, and #ASI2600MC Pro cam. #Siril and #GIMP for processing. 🌌🔭🦛

Life Hack: Not every night goes as planned, but perseverance in #Astrophotography builds emotional resilience. And that's what will carry you through until the day you die.

Did you know that the first woman in space was a Russian named Valentina Tereshkova? She launched into space during the Vostok 6 mission on June 16, 1963 and spent almost three days in space, orbiting the Earth 48 times in her capsule before returning to Earth.

The Western Veil Nebula from last night's #Astrophotography. Captured with two 2-hour panels on the #Seestar, processed with #Siril and some minor tweaks in #GIMP. 🌌🔭🦛

Life Hack: Selling #astrophotography prints or licensing images can provide an extra income stream. And an endless source of amazement that people actually buy this stuff.

For the #heliophysics crowd.

Brilliant!

Precise measurements of stars' positions reveal gravitational influences, like unseen planets. That's how Neptune was discovered based on mathematical predictions made by Urbain Le Verrier due to irregularities in Uranus's orbit.

Life Hack: Remembering that Earth is a tiny speck in the cosmos can make daily problems seem smaller and easier to manage so you can get through your day. Or week. Or...

Gravitational waves are ripples in spacetime caused by violent events like merging black holes. Similar to waves on a pond when a rock is dropped in, we can measure gravity waves and sometimes figure out what caused them.

Ever heard of a magnetar? 🌌 It’s a type of neutron star with a magnetic field a trillion times stronger than Earth’s. If you brought a magnetar as close as the Moon, it would wipe every credit card on Earth. 1/6 🌌🔭🦛

Life Hack: Capturing the perfect celestial shot teaches patience, which can carry over into daily life. Try not to let it become an obsession.

Astrometry helps pinpoint a star's motion through the galaxy, known as proper motion. Astrometry is the measurement of the positions and movements of stars and other celestial bodies.

this morning's (sept 19th north america side) got moon and venus super duper close..wasn't aware of it so took un-planned shots..not much came out but here it is #astronomy #astrophotography

Life Hack: Engaging with #Astrophotography communities introduces you to others who may have already solved the same problems you're having. Learn from them, grasshopper. Then teach others.

Time flows differently in strong gravitational fields; this is a consequence of general relativity. Find out more at http://astropotamus.com/articles/mysteries-of-the-speed-of-light

I went to my first #Buffalo #Bills game last night in #Highmark Stadium before they tear it down. The game was average but it's always good to see the hometeam win and the atmosphere was great. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ out of ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐, would do again. In fact, I am! Back on Dec 7 for Cincinnati. #BillsMafia 🐬🏈🐃🏆

Not my best #Astrophotography image, but the seeing was good last night. 😜🏈🔍🦛

Life Hack: Learning to adjust camera settings for different conditions makes you more adaptable in other problem-solving scenarios. It also will give you an indication of how your arthritis is going.

The Cosmic Microwave Background radiation is the afterglow of the Big Bang, visible across the universe. Its high degree of uniformity throughout the observable universe and faint but measured anisotropy lend strong support for the Big Bang model and the Lambda Cold Dark Matter model in particular.

Life Hack: Carrying equipment and setting up at different locations can help improve physical fitness. Plus think of all the fun you'll have showing people your Google Maps history!

The Milky Way contains as many as 400 billion stars, and it's just one of the trillions of galaxies in the universe. Woaaaaaah!!

Space station passes over Europe and North America later on. Check skycalpro for times. You can now search for astro events 10 days into the future since the last release skycalpro.com

It's Thursday. That means it's my @skircle.bsky.social #Skircle day. Congratulations to everyone who feels they need to be congratulated for the achievements that this attached image represents for them. See you next week! 🔵🔍🦛

I just sold all my $DIS stock. #Disney

Life Hack: Seeing the cosmos through your lens changes the way you view your everyday surroundings. You start to wonder if you can stack images of your cat.

Astrometry measures the positions and movements of stars and other celestial objects. Without it, we wouldn't be able to plan missions to orbit, the Moon, or other planets in the solar system.

Life Hack: Volunteering at observatories or schools to share your passion makes a positive impact on your community. Nothing makes one smile like seeing a kid's face light up when they learn something new.

Astrometry plays a key role in detecting exoplanets by tracking a star's slight wobble. Astrometry is the measurement of the positions and movements of stars and other celestial bodies.

#PerVinoAdAstra (et feles)! 😺🔭🦛

M 51 data from three different telescopes combined with WBPP in PI and then stretched in Siril because I don't know how to stretch in PI yet. 😜 #Astrophotogaphy 🌌🔭🦛
