Atacama Desert Milky Way
URL of website: www.mdieterichphoto.com
Copyright: Matt Dieterich The northern part of the Atacama Desert in Chile is home to beautiful night skies and unique lagoons. Pictured here is the Milky Way over Ojos Del Salar, which means "eyes of the desert" in Spanish. I thought the Milky Way reflecting in the water was pretty awesome while shooting the scene!

Chilean Milky Way with Zodiacal Light, Airlgow, and Magellanic Clouds
URL of website: www.mdieterichphoto.com
Copyright: Matt Dieterich I captured this view of the Milky Way paired with Zodiacal Light and airglow from Chile. The Zodiacal Light is caused by the setting Sun illuminating dust particles in space. What I love most about stargazing here in Chile is that the skies are very dark. If you look closely the Large Magellanic and Small Magellanic Clouds are visible above the observatory. Such a beautiful view of nature always makes me feel so connected to the Earth and Universe

Something moving near Crab Nebula? This is from 10/29/19 from 1:23 AM to 5:35 Am PST from Julian, CA. I first saw it in the RGB combine. The two L frames are my first B and last G from last night.

It's known asteroid "Indiana".

NGC 6334 (also known as the Cat's Paw Nebula, Bear Claw Nebula, or Gum 64)
    NGC 6334 is a large star-forming region, covering an area in the night sky slightly larger than the full moon. It is one of the most active star nurseries producing massive stars in the Milky Way.
         
      Located toward the constellation Scorpio, about 5,500 light years away and an estimated 50 light years in length.
          
        The big bright cloud has earned the nickname cat paw because it looks like a gigantic cat footprint because of the three bubbles in the image that resemble the pads of its paws.
              
          On the central cushion, a blue-colored bubble resulting from strong OIII emissions is thought to be caused by a Wolf-Rayet star, in the final stages of evolution that is losing mass due to its wind action. ; Another explanation relates to the fact that it may be a remnant of a recent supernova.


          Equipments :

          Apo Triplet 150mm
          Qhy 16200mm
          83 x 500 ”- SHO (approximately 12 hours of captures taken)
          Sao Carlos - SP - Brazil
          During the month of june - 2019


          Processing and Capture:
          Software: PixInsight, Adobe Photoshop, APT, PHD, Polemaster, Sharcap

          The Milky Way and the road line formed a big eye shape, it seems to be observing everything in the world peacefully.

          We climbed to the top of the rocks as if we were at the centre of the universe. The torch may not be able to light up the entire universe, but we know it can light up our lives.

          That's a very fine portrait of NGC 1097, Lee Borsboom. The bar of NGC 1097 looks almost surreal. Just look at the parallel dust lanes in the yellowish bulge, meeting the central bar at right angles.
