I remember Robbie Ince did a study of the Hubble Deep Field area from a Kielder Star Party, a number of years back, to find out how deep he could see with his astrophotography setup. I can't seem to find much online about it though.

These could equally be evidence for an incorrect theory where dark matter doesn't exist

The site is always posted up as fully booked during the Star Parties. This is done on purpose to stop non astronomers trying to book pitches for tents or caravans. All bookings are by email or telephone calls to Lesley at Drumroamin. http://www.drumroamin.co.uk/

Hi Guys Hope you're all ok, and that you got some decent sky last night. BBC shows partial cloud tonight with an hour clear at 1, but then what do they know. Wishing you clear skies for the rest of the week, you lucky b's. Have a good one. See you at the next .

https://starburstfound.org/sqkblog/?p=138 The position of the quasar doesn't look like a thin part of the galaxy NGC7319 to me. It's pretty central. I just think Arp's ideas have been binned, without due examination, because of the implications for the red shift & big bang theories.

Another of Arp's discoveries, which is even more interesting, is NGC7319, with a red shift of 0.0225, that has a quasar in front of it but with a red shift of 2.114 which puts it billions of LY further away. The Tooth fairy must have poked a hole in the galaxy for the quasar to shine through.

Welcome to SGL.

Hi Bomberbaz I think the website usually shows as fully booked during the starcamp, to reserve it for us. You should ring Lesley at the site to check.

As long as it's not your whiskey.

Does that make me #8

Don't put yourself down David. I think you've got considerable astro knowlege.

Hi A warm welcome to SGL. Learn and Enjoy

The Dark(er) side of the Moon is the side that does not get any Earthshine. Simple

Don't get your head in a tizz. This is just a theory, developed by humans with 1 point of reference in a vast universe. Like most other theories it will crash and burn, in time.
