I'm posting a photo I took with my cell phone. It doesn't do it justice.The sun was just peaking over the horizon overexposing that section of sky. The pillar...
Hi All, I just posted an image from yesterday of a very large solar plasma cloud. An hour after this was taken the cloud was gone! Image made with Coronado...
Is there a meeting next Tuesday March 8th? Where, subject? Could use a short lesson on getting Canon *.CR2 format images into Registax, CCDStack, Photoshop or...
AFAIK there is a meeting on March 8th at Doug's school. In order for CCDstack to read CR2 format you need a free adobe plug in, although I can't seem to find...
Hi Jon, For photoshop on my MAC I use the Adobe Digital Negative Converter (free) which makes a .dng file that PS is happy with. Don't know about the other...
Hi All, Just posted a C8 + orangebot webcam image of Saturn with serpent storm. Mediocre seeing and I am limited for Saturn with the orangebot webcam to using...
Hi all, Anyone that does deep sky imaging usually will experience satellites or airplanes crossing through their images at one time or another.The other night...
Mike, I just ran accross this earlier: Re: Tonight I got two iridium flares at same time. Posted by: "Worsel" bryancashion@... bryancashion Sat Mar 5,...
Frank, The more I look at this the more I think that these are probably geosynchronous satellites. For a 30 second exposure the trails are very short.Most...
Howdy ... Just posted a screen shot of "mainstream" satellites in the field of your picture at that time. Tle's are fresh for the date. None of them look to...
They appear stationary over the earth but the telescope was tracking on the stars keeping them stationary while the satellites appear to be drifting through...
After googling "images of geosynchronous satellites" it became readily apparent that what I have imaged is a couple of geosynchronous satellites. On the...
Mike, Little doubt you imaged artificial satellites in an orbit close to if not synchronous. Doesn't the solution to the mystery rest with identifying them?...
OK, guess it's best to just do it as an example ... Using the complete Norad TLE dataset (over 80 million objects) for the next night, best I figure is for...
I will be there.. Chris Unless Doug says otherwise, there is a meeting tomorrow night. On Mon, Mar 7, 2011 at 11:04 AM, Jon < jon@... > wrote: Meeting on...

Chris wrote me a CCDstack work flow that is really good. I uploaded it to the files section. Thanks Chris! Now I just need a clear night to take more images...
Thx Stu for upload. Chris - you say this in your DSLR/CCDStack tutorial: "Note: This process workflow tutorial is specifically adjusted for your Canon XSI with...
Try using the same settings. If those don't work, go to the CCDstack forums and search there or post a question. Stan will answer you in about an hour--the...
Bill, Thanks so much for doing the research and telling me about this web site.If this issue comes up again or I decide to purposely image synchronous...
Hi All, During the meeting tonight the shuttle and ISS will make a pass side by side at around 7:26. http://www.spaceweather.com/ Bring your binocs, cameras...
If I am reading www.calsky correctly, the shadow of the ISS will pass over Berkeley, Orinda and Walnut Creek tomorrow around noon am Wednesday. Check...
So if I read Calsky correctly it will transit at 11:55:32? Technique question--should I use my webcam or my DSLR? I'm assuming the DSLR because I can get much...
I likely won't make it to the imaging meeting tonight as I have a zillion things to take care of before I head off on a trip to India next week. (And San Diego...
Can someone bring a small scope/camera set up to the meeting tonight so we can try to image the ISS and shuttle? We can then process it at the meeting. I...
