  1. Them: Are you an astronomer? Me: I'm an IT guy with insomnia.

    My visual mag from last night was 1.60 (robust mean of 13 observations). That is 0.03 mag dimmer than the robust mean of the 5 previous nights (n=83, 0.8σ).

  3. After reading 's article on StarNet++, I created this starless version of my Hubble palette NGC 7822 image. Might be a great technique to add RGB stars to SHO nebula images!

  5. NGC 6946, the Fireworks Galaxy, is 22.5 million light years distant. The open cluster NGC 6939 is much closer to us at 4000 ly. I imaged this from the driveway in Southern Oregon last October.

  6. My DIY sky cam from last night. One of these days, I'll move it to a less obstructed site.

  7. First time in a couple of months that I've seen clear night skies and was finally able to get a look at . Who knew that dim could be so exciting? Since it's a weeknight, no for these old bones. I still have to work during the daylight.

  8. I see a couple of breaks in the rainy weather in the extended forecast. Now, if the cloud cover cooperates...

  9. If the weather looks right, I'll take a vacation day to catch this transit from my driveway. I caught an ISS transit of the moon a couple of years ago. It was during the day, a bit out of focus and I can do better now.

  10. My software toolkit: Acquisition: Sequence Generator Pro Stacking: Astro Pixel Processor Processing: Pixinsight Final Processing: Photoshop What software do you use for ?

  11. This SHO narrowband image of the Bubble Nebula was taken over two nights in September and October of last year. Stacked in Astro Pixel Processor, processed in Pixinsight and tweaked in Photoshop.

  12. Another flashback to October (did I mention that it's raining?): NGC 7822, in the constellation Cepheus. SHO narrowband, 6.7 hours total integration.

  13. It's currently raining with an extended forecast full of yuck. So here's Andromeda, imaged from the driveway last October.

  14. Every once in a while, someone fat-fingers their email address and I end up with the results in my inbox. And I'm always to click the "manage booking" button.

  15. Happy New Year! Pizza and a movie are the extent of my partying these days. Well, OK, there may be a beer or two in the mix.

    Poništi
  16. My new 533MC Pro showed up in the mail today and my wife is blaming for this purchase. Now waiting for some clear skies to try it out!

    Poništi
  17. One way to guarantee cloudiness into the new year.

    Poništi
  18. My last session was on November 23rd. I haven't had a clear night since. Ugh.

    Poništi
  19. 42 years and counting! She even puts up with my obsessive habit!

  20. I was in Bend, Oregon for business last week. This was my drive home Friday. I like seeing snow in the mountains, but not driving in it.
