Melotte 15 (The heart of the Heart) in Hα-SII/OIII/OIII+rgb by Jose Carballada, on Flickr

Image taken with a modest 10" RC telescope with more tha 50 hours of integration time in narrow band.
Processed on "natural" palette I try to show all details as possible on that stars open cluster and also reveal how dark nebulas contribute to the composition of the image.

NGC 6334 The Cat’s Paw Nebula

Copyright Mark Hanson

This stunning part of the sky in Scorpius was taken from El Sauce, Chile with a PlaneWave CDK 17” using all 7 filters. This is one of the most detailed versions I have seen. I processed it in 3 different ways to show it in all its glory, actually 4 but could only post 3 here.

I hope you enjoy it.

You can see the full versions here:

I just finished processing a year of time lapse sunset images to show the movement of the sun up and down the horizon as the seasons change.

I've got a few different versions of different lengths. Here is the 6 minute version:

Links to the 3 and 19 minute versions can be found in the YouTube description, along with a video showing the hardware and software I developed to make it happen.

Hi,

Today is Mars opposition so it's good time to show effect of my project from whole September
This is full rotation of planet Mars - all of the data to make this animation was collected 3, 8, 12, 15, 22 and 28th of Septmber 2020. This allow me to collect all of the necessary data to cover full Mars surface.
Then I created several surface maps in WinJupos - using equirectangular projection and I putted it together into one map using Photoshop.
Finally I put this map to WinJupos again and in "Ephemerides" section I create 3D rotation model using this map.
The effect is on below animation
.

Click to play embedded YouTube video.

.
also GIF animation is avaiable under this link:

https://www.astrobin.com/full/0jeu1p/0/?nc=user

and finally - full Mars surface map (albedo details) composed using WinJupos and all my data collected in September 2020
.

.
+ extra - same Mars rotation in artificial anaglif 3D (you need red-blue glasses to see the effect)

Click to play embedded YouTube video.

Equipment:
Astrofaktoria Newton 350/1400 on NEQ-6 mount
ZWO ASI 178 MM-C camera with Baader RGB filters & IR742nm

Mars on October 12th, 04:00ut. Hephaestus Rupes, Cerberus Dorsa and Eridania Planisia regions. ( LX200ACF 305mm, ASI290mm Cmos, TeleVue 3x Barlows, Astromik GB filters, Baarder IR685 filter.)

The poles of Mars.

The north pole is covered with ice clouds and lies in shadow. The south polar cap is very far defrosted.
These pictures are polar-coordinate-projections of my Mars map from the very similar opposition in 2005. All used images were taken in France with a C11 XLT telescope and are part of my documentary film “The Return of Mars”.

Check the related my movie excerpt: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4mx2R3B ... 2q&index=3

Cheers,
Sebastian

Lunar Eclipse 1-20-2019 Timeline

As the Earth's shadow passes over the moon, we are treated to a spectacular light show. During the deepest part of the eclipse, highlighted as the center image, sun light passing through the earth's atmosphere is refracted onto the lunar surface with a hint of hazy blue at upper left.
