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.

Dark matter - fudge factor?
philthy replied to Viktiste's topic in Physics, Space Science and Theories
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 .

Halton Arp picture problem
philthy replied to Marvin Jenkins's topic in Physics, Space Science and Theories
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. -
Halton Arp picture problem
philthy replied to Marvin Jenkins's topic in Physics, Space Science and 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. -

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.

philthy replied to Craney's topic in The Astro Lounge
The Dark(er) side of the Moon is the side that does not get any Earthshine. Simple 🤔 -
