Jupiter is still king of the planets in March 2026. Here's how to see it at its best #Astronomy #Space #Jupiter www.skyatnightmagazine.com/news/jupiter...

There is a chance to spot Venus, Saturn and Neptune close together just after sunset this evening. They will be very low to the west around 19:00 UT. Neptune will be very difficult to spot due to the bright sky. Binoculars or a telescope best for this one. #Astronomy

The Moon tonight here in #SantaBarbara! #MoonPhotography #MoonPhotos #MoonShots #Photography #ChingaLaMigra Settings: Canon T5i Sigma 150-600mm + Canon 1.4x Extender Focal length: 840mm F-stop: f/9 Exposure time: 1/250 ISO: 400 #Moon phase: Waning 85%

Wow! A completely clear night and TEN hours of continuous 'shooting' at some cracking galaxies (described in ALT). The Dwarf3 smartscope was quite hot at the end! #astronomy #astrophotography @stormhour.com @photohour.bsky.social

Colourful sunrise this morning, possibly caused by Saharan dust moving over the UK this week. #Weather #StormHour #Sunrise

Venus and Saturn, preparing to set over the ocean.

Last night's full #Moon was a nice orange colour when rising 😀 #Astronomy #Astrophotography

A timelapse of the the full #Moon rising last night, coloured orange due to the low height at the time and the hazy atmosphere. #FullMoon #Astronomy

Morning all… This is my best shot yet of our galactic neighbour. The Andromeda Galaxy (M31) is the nearest major spiral galaxy to the Milky Way, located about 2.5 million light-years away. So in this photo, we are seeing the Andromeda galaxy as it was 2.5 million years ago.

This is the Blood Moon again, but this time 30 6-second images stacked. I think it might have gained a little bit in detail, but I might like the color better on the first one. #Astronomy #Astrophotography

Here's a quick animation of this AM's total lunar eclipse, with one shot every five minutes through the Dwarf Mini through partial phases up to totality when clouds shut down the show:

A closer view of last night's total lunar eclipse at mid-eclipse. I stacked the best 20 of 50, 0.8s ISO 400 exposures with Autostakkert, sharpened with Registax and processed with Photoshop. Takahashi TSA 120 and modified Sony Alpha 7 III. #astrophotography

The orange colour of my last post has long since gone as the waning gibbous Moon (99.6%) gains height. #astronomy #astrophotography @stormhour.com @photohour.bsky.social

The rising full #Moon this evening 😀 #FullMoon #Astronomy #Astrophotography

Remarkable, how the Vera Rubin Observatory sky survey will produce up to 7 million alerts a night: noirlab.edu/public/news/...

Tonight's star trail over my house. One hour's worth before the clouds returned! Polaris, the Pole Star, is bang in the centre. #astronomy #astrophotography @stormhour.com @photohour.bsky.social

Another shot from the 25th. The "Eyes of Clavius". An interesting illusion created by the morning sunlight catching the rims of craters inside the wonderful crater Clavius in the Moon's southern highlands 🔭

The 91% lit Moon is close to the Beehive Cluster in Cancer this evening, 28 February. #Astronomy

The astronomy highlights for March 2026: Bright Venus puts on a nice display this month, low to the west after sunset. #Astronomy #Astrophotography #Stargazing

Waxing Gibbous Moon and Jupiter (zoom for Galilean moons). 2003UT 27 February 2026. 🔭 🧪 🎨 #astrophotography #SciArt #photography #StormHour #ThePhotoHour

Six planets on show in celestial 'parade' #Astronomy #Space www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

This evening's 83.8% waxing gibbous Moon. Can you spot the 'Jewelled Handle' on the left edge? #astronomy #astrophotography @stormhour.com @photohour.bsky.social

The dramatic yet subtle details of many of my astro images emerges when they are presented without stars and in black and white. I hope you enjoy this short video of some of my favorites. #astrophotography

The Moon occults the magnitude 3.5 star Kappa Geminorium this evening, 27 February. The star disappears behind the Moon around 21:38 UT and reappears around 22:38 UT. Times vary by a few minutes depending on your location. #Astronomy

Moon and Jupiter on partly cloudy night, just for the sake of mood. #Astronomy #Astrophotography

Comet C/2024 E1 (Wierzchoś) will be visible between the stars of Eridanus and Cetus low in the southwest after sunset this evening, 27 February. Best viewed around 19:00 to 20:00 UT. The comet will be around magnitude 7 to 8 and tricky to spot as it is quite low down. #Astronomy

The 75% lit #Moon sits at the top right corner of a square formed by the Moon, planet Jupiter and the stars Castor and Pollux in Gemini this evening , 26 February. A nice sight in the evening sky. #Astronomy

UK records warmest day of the year with temperatures exceeding 18C www.bbc.co.uk/weather/arti...

Caught some cloud iridescence above the rising sun yesterday. #Weather

Last night was the first clear night I've had since 13 January. Never known a poor run of weather this bad. It lifts the soul to gaze at a starry night sky 😀 #Astronomy #Astrophotography

Thunderstorms can generate weak electrical discharges on the plants underneath, but until now, they had never been observed in nature

The lunar Vallis Alpes (Alpine Valley) from last night. The crater Cassini is to the right (the one with two craters within it). #Moon #Astronomy #Astrophotography

Finally managed to image C/2024 E1 (Wierzchos), located low, at the southwest horizon. The bright ion tail of the previous week has become quite dim. The comet features a green coma and a dust tail. #cometWatch #astrophotography

A very small planetary nebula called NGC 2392 in Gemini. Also called the Eskimo or Clown Face Nebula. Really too small for my equipment, but sometimes you just have to try. #Astronomy #Astrophotography

I noticed something kinda nifty about sungrazing comet C/2026 A1 MAPS during research: it’ll pass directly in front of the Sun as seen from the Earth on April 4th, assuming it survives its blazing close perihelion passage. More on the comet: www.universetoday.com/articles/new...

First sight this cycle! Tonight's waxing crescent Moon a few hours ago. Just 13% through a very brief gap in the cloud curtain 🙂 #astronomy #astrophotography @stormhour.com @photohour.bsky.social

After sunset, around 18:00 UT on 20 February, it might be possible to spot the 11% lit #Moon in a line with Saturn, Mercury and Venus low in the west-southwest. This will be a tricky one too see due to the faintness and low height of the planets. The Moon should be a nice sight though. #Astronomy

Around 21:30 UT this evening, 20 February, Callisto can be seen emerging from behind Jupiter's disc, having been hidden by the planet from 17:30 UT. #Jupiter #Astronomy
