Hey guys, I am camping with our local Boy Scout troop this weekend, and was wandering if anyone has a good list of objects that youth would enjoy seeing...
Hi, Chris, Here are a few for early - mid evening to check out, assuming the boys won't be up all night. All should look decent in a 5" or larger scope. I've...
Joe's list should do ya. I've been to Giant Rock, that's the largest free standing boulder in the world, and interesting enough, it's one solid piece of...
I added two photos in my folder. The Leo Trio and NGC 2359, Thor's Helmut. http://tech.ph.groups.yahoo.com/group/RASIMAGE/photos/browse/e975 Both were taken...
More great stuff, Robin! Joe ... -- Reality is that which, when you stop believing in it, doesn't go away. --Philip K. Dick It is sometimes an appropriate...
Congratulations to David Morris who wrote a one page article about his barn-door tracker for the Prime Focus. This kind of contribution makes for a much better...
Hope to see you all at Notre Dame High School tomorrow (February 25) evening at 7:00 for the Imaging meeting. We need to help Ralph make decisions about how to...
Hi all, Very sorry for the off-topic and cross-post but I thought this might be useful to some. We often hear about a cool, new eyepiece, or the latest...
Be kind. it was taken from home where I always have bad seeing and heavy light pollution. :) http://www.californiastars.net/gallery/ic405_st10_fsq.html Best, ...
No need for kindness, Danny! Great image! On Thu, Feb 28, 2008 at 11:09 PM, Daniel Perry (californiastars) < ... -- Reality is that which, when you stop...
I'll toss my endorsement in, too. I use a Telegizmo 365 cover on my scope (12" LX200) and leave mine up for months at a time without regard for inclement...
Well, if that's the California Nebula, the comet must be in the water! I didn't get the amount of data I was hoping for due to some heavy wind early in the...
At long last, we will be seeing the true story of the Messier Marathon Movie (I mean, telling the story is a marathon in itself!) Be sure to be there tomorrow...
Had some good weather in Joshua Tree this weekend. Here's one of the images I was able to get: http://www.californiastars.net/gallery/ngc7000_40d_fsq106.html ...
Danny, Another nice image. I had similar experience at Red Cloud Road on Saturday night - 3 hours on M101 that turned out just OK, but a quick 30 minute RGB on...
Those are really nice Joe, I especially like the two nebulae. I like the framing, and the thick layer of stars between them. Alex ... b=1&m=f&o=0 ... ...
Thank you, Alex. The later it got the more I wanted something easy to shoot. After badly botching M104, imaging M8 and M20 gave me a good enough feeling I...
The only problem you will have with staying up late like this (and Danny, too, with his North America Nebula last week) is that you will be shooting the Orion...
Hi all, The Astroimaging Group has decided to take it upon themselves to image all of the RAS 100. To that end, I have uploaded star charts by month that I...
