Pixinsight question
City9Town0 replied to Anthonyexmouth's topic in Imaging - Image Processing, Help and Techniques
I'm still using DBE... just how much of a dinosaur am I? (polite answers only!) -
Saw three in the East in five minutes a while ago... now 95% cloud, and it looks set in for a while!

Good luck! Cloudy in my part of Suffolk.

Suffolk aurora time-lapse...
City9Town0 replied to City9Town0's topic in Imaging - Widefield, Special Events and Comets
After an hour and a half I'd just about given up waiting! I turned around and did some 'light painting' photos in a southerly direction, and then had a look back to the North... Oh my!!! ...fired up the camera and watched... my best ever from Suffolk. -
About forty minutes or so of aurora condensed to a few seconds. A few km North-East of Ipswich. It's a big file, but colourful!

City9Town0 replied to Grant's topic in Star Parties & Astro Events
It's 100 minutes up the A12 from the M25 when the road is clear... therefore normally much longer!!! ☹️ -
A smashing part of the world... some excellent dark skies once the rain clears!!!

A lovely visit; found it by chance on a trip to Bath a few years ago.

In Northern Norway I've seen the vibrant colours... In East Anglia (Suffolk) I've photographed the colours and seen nothing!

Whipple Musuem of the History of Science, Cambridge
City9Town0 replied to baggywrinkle's topic in History of Astronomy
Thread drift (apologies if offended)... A Harrison clock keyring is so 'unhip' and 'yesteryear'... A few years ago I purchased some of these for my sixth-form students so that they could become better acquainted with 'modern physics'...!!! -
'Triggered' by the 'Stern-Gerlach' thread I've linked to the 'Bertozzi' experiment. When starting teaching relativistic effects I used to show this to the students... behind a few comments about gender, accents, and dress codes there was always admiration for attention to detail and rigour in this video, and a realisation of the meticulous nature of frontier science. https://education.jlab.org/scienceseries/ultimate_speed.html I believe that one of Bertozzi's daughters was awarded the Nobel prize for chemistry. There are some interesting resources from this site.

Are light pollution filters still needed?
City9Town0 replied to bendiddley's topic in Imaging - Discussion
Are light pollution filters still needed? Lights just added to the garden behind me... my one piece of 'reasonable' Bortle 4 sky is gone. -
Help with Imaging
City9Town0 replied to Leti Theobald's topic in Imaging - Image Processing, Help and Techniques
Is it visible in the single un-corrected frames? Does it move slightly over time such as light from a street lamp entering?
