  1. Oh, to have such talent! Wonderful!
  2. Beautiful scopes! That F16 is definitely a star cannon!
  3. A quick look a Jupiter and the four big moons. Just killing time for another of E. Musk's space junk, I mean Starlink launches. Now I'm in the drive, watching the Moon rise amongst 5 billion mosquitoes, waiting out another delay! With the Moon rising in the perfect place, I'll wait this delay out, but that's it.
  4. Once again, you skill with these difficult images is amazing! I have also just been reading about this monster. We have several passes showing on Heavens-above!
  5. I have already put in time off and plan to be in the San Antonio area. From my daughters home, it's 15 hours of driving. Looks to be SWMBO, my oldest daughter and myself. I just hope the weather cooperates! I don't know if timing will allow for it, but I would love to run another 4 hours south after the eclipse, to Boca Chica for a glimpse of E. Musk's big toy.
  6. Thanks for posting! I'm certain those who that witnessed that took a while to calm down!
  7. Excellent image. Again, seeing the gas giant like this is incredible on its own merit. But actually seeing one of the moons looking like a small planet!
  8. Amazing, but the Hubble has already left my brain like guacamole! The image they took with the Hubble of a small area of the sky, that here on Earth shows not a single star, which when processed show uncountable galaxies as far as you could see, finished me off! What is out the in the universe is unimaginable!
  9. Would make our Redwoods and Giant Sequoia look very small! Incredible image.
  10. It is a memory that will stick with you forever!
  11. Great images! I peeked at it a couple days ago, the number of active regions is amazing.
  12. This is a very interesting article. Wouldn't it be a little strange if 2001 had it right?
  13. In between the clouds, the numerous spots and active areas always amaze me. Everytime I look at the Sun, or anything else in the heavens I can't help but think of the past. Once again it's Galileo. There are spots on the Sun. I believe they are storms.
  14. Wonderful image! I had noi idea it even existed!
  15. Nice image! You have to just love looking up at it passing overhead and think, there is really people living in that!
  16. Forget those planewave telescopes! Look at that roll back observatory! And I thought I was finished building observatories!
  17. No, took my life in my hands. Set up in the street away from my driveway.
  18. Nice and clear night. This launch went almost due East for a change. Coming up behind the neighbors tree. Climbing and going down range. All of these were ISO 1600 on bulb. i stopped and started a couple times to make certain it stayed in the field of view. 11:38 pm time of launch. If I would have stayed up another 90 minutes the train would have passed directly over head, but I crashed. Oh yes, no power pole this time!😁
  19. These are now the trend with new installs over here. I'm also seeing a lot of parking lots retrofitted with them. Anything that cuts down on the light shining outward has to help some, but reflected light is still the problem. What I see at 4am when I go to work is businesses with exterior lighting on the building itself around entrances and on the corners that are still terrible. The sky glow back West from where I live is mostly due to exterior lights on businesses that are closed at night.
  20. Seeing the details on Jupiter, like this is always amazing. But I have to say seeing one of the moons, looking like a moon instead of a brilliant spec is even more so! Well done!
