Messier 33, The Triangulum Galaxy
Another clear night. That’s two in a row! Clear and cool, a little bit of haze off to the east, that cleared up a bit later. Another nice night to look up. This is the first time I have done an “unattended”…
A very nice clear night. Temperatures in the mid-to-low 50s and a 34% waxing Moon. Hunted a few galaxies, two of which I have visited before and a really interesting one I have not observed before. Orion was rising high enough in…
I am tried something a little different here. I wanted to capture data of Messier 33 over a couple of nights to see what I could come up with. Mostly so I can get some post-processing practice in Siril. I collected 1…
A nice clear night. It started out kind of warm in the mid-to-low 60’s, but the temperature dropped into the upper 40’s quickly after dark. A great night to work through some of the objects on the CloudyNight’s October 2022 EAA Observing…
A nice cool, in the mid-60s, and clear night. A bit hazy, but not too bad overall. My plan for this session was to revisit some of the objects on the CloudyNight’s September 2022 EAA Observing Challenge list and to see what…
Cloudy Sunday night, but had a great time observing Friday and Saturday night. I put together a few more images I found in my archives which I captured a decade or so ago, this time a bunch of different galaxies. These captures…
The weather was much warmer last night and the skies were clear. Had a good look at the Crab Nebula (M1), Bode’s Galaxy (M81), the Cigar Galaxy (M82), Triangulum Galaxy (M33), and the reflection nebula M78. Same setup I have been using…
Last night was cold but clear so I set out to try to catch a glimpse of the Andromeda Galaxy EAA style with the SV305 Camera. Same setup I have been using the past few nights, my Stellervue 80mm scope for visual…
