And the andromeda Galaxy, I think??
-
Testing out our new tent at my brothers house tonight, middle of the country, so obviously I have had to pack my scope up with me?
-
No such luck here, good forecast for tomorrow night though so hopefully a few hours ☁️☁️☁️☁️☁️
-
Thought I'd add this taken while piggy backing on the scope, just noticed a satellite trail above the scope, towards the top ?
-
Oh you know, I'm getting there!! Thanks for the kind words, it's great when something works out by accident.....
-
Very nice.

Just a bit of fun really, took this pic of my Skwatcher 150p on eq3-2 with part of UM visible over the end of the scope. Shone my red torch during a 25 sec exposure. Let's see yours while in use - at night please, looking for some nice star trails maybe.
-
Without tracking, here's my fist attempts with about 2-3 sec exposures at prime focus, M13 a month or so ago and Andromeda Galaxy last night. I am getting loads of great advice on how to improve and can't wait to when I get motors.

And there's always infinite monkey cage for a bit of humour while Brian cox tries to steer it back to science: Check out this great Podcast: https://itunes.apple.com/gb/podcast/the-infinite-monkey-cage/id343580439?mt=2

When wanting to take loads of single exposures of an object, do you simply move the object to the centre of each shot so you can stack them all easily?
-
This was a single shot. Still learning about stacking.

I can't believe I can contribute to this thread now ? Here's my effort of M13 taken on 150p on eq3-2 but not guided or tracked at all - does it count? Canon 1100d at prime focus 6400 ISO 2.5 secs exposure. Sorry that this is not up to the standard of many pics on here, but I'm happy with it.

Brilliant. Downloading now!

My table has slowly been consumed by our chimenea, few bits left. -

Interesting that you have exactly the same kids climbing frame as me, plus we had that table as well until it fell to bits last year, ? Wish I had you're open views though! -

Thought I'd re-invigorate this thread, and why not, cloudy outside and nothing better to do. Here's my Skywatcher 150p on eq3-2 and I love it. Recently got back into all this and my mind is constantly thinking about what I can search for next. (Please note, that is not an Apollo Landing Module).

Hi all Not sure if this has been mentioned but I've recently found a load of podcasts from last year about everything to do with space the universe stars planets space flight etc. Search your podcasts for StarStuff, makes the daily drive to work more bearable and full of amazing info.
