Starship Asterisk*

The Roaring Lion This one turned out much better than the initial master stacks. Post processing got a lot of depth and details out. Captured with the CDK14 in "f/4.76 Astrograph" mode, the longer nights and clear nights have been a nice change. Seeing has been better too with some frames ...

Saturn and the Polar Hexagon The polar hexagon of Saturn is unique and truly intriguing phenomenon. First observed in 19081 by Voyager , it is located at about 78 degree N. The southern pole does not have a hexagon. The overall diameter is some 18,000 miles (29,000km) and each side of the hexagon i...

The Soul Nebula, IC 1871. A beautiful region of dense clouds that trigger star formation. The dark structures are clouds of dust obscuring the light from our view some 6,500 light-years away. This image was captured through 3nm ultra-narrowband filters and is a composite of ionized Sulphur, Hydrogen...

Bubble Nebula 70pct-CROP An2.jpg The Bubble Nebula is an emission nebula. The "bubble" is created by the stellar wind from a massive hot young central star, The nebula is near a giant molecular cloud which contains the expansion of the bubble nebula while itself being excited by the hot c...

Here is another one captured by myself of Saturn showing the polar Hexagon.

The image is a stack of derotated (Winjupos) RGB video captures.

Hi all,

Here is a recent image captured by myself of Jupiter showing the GRS.

Look closely and you can see Jerry Garcia floating ephemerally there about 3/4 of the way up an just to the right of center.

That is quite a deep image. I too want to try a similar project.

This is a good example of Andromeda

The HUDF has to be one of my favorites just because it is a tiny section space and it holds so many galaxies. This picture is worth more than a thousand words, and brings about so many unanswered questions. It's simply amazing. I am awestruck everytime I look at it. http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod...

That is spooky!

Wow this thread is useful

That Square nebula is probably one of the most unique I've ever seen

Nice! Haen' got a chance to image it myself yet

Wow nce one!
Amazing Detail!

I started by taking a photo of the Moon with a regular SLR camera. I was hooked from then!
