This is a 2-frame Hyperstar III mosaic of the NGC7788 region in Cassiopeia. This region is famous for having 6 open clusters in a line. However, towards the top of the frame (not visible in this image) is a fascinating … Continue reading
On 10th October 2008 I managed to get 3 hours and 40-minutes worth of H-alpha data on the Heart nebula in Cassiopeia using 10-minute subs. The Moon was causing all sorts of trouble and the seeing was poor which led … Continue reading
I can report that the hardware changes made a couple of days ago produced the expected result – tracking is now back to the very high accuracy I had when using the Hyperstar 1. Unfortunately I also had to turn … Continue reading
Taken over several years this image is a composite of Hyperstar I, Sky 90 and Hyperstar III data.
The latest Parker/Carboni offering is the beautiful Iris nebula in the constellation Cepheus.
Acquired by Greg Parker at the New Forest Observatory and expertly processed by Noel Carboni in Florida U.S.A. the NFO proudly presents the whole of the North America nebula in high resolution and true colour.
As you are all aware – we didn’t have a summer this year, so the “summer” mega-project for 2008 has been making incredibly slow progress. I managed to get out on the evening of 19th September to grab 3 more … Continue reading
Noel has just put the finishing touches on the latest acquisition from the New Forest Observatory. This time it is the Crescent nebula region in Cygnus, and this represents just under 4-hours worth of H-alpha data, together with 2 and … Continue reading
Noel has just processed the latest data taken using the Hyperstar III. This time we have just under 3-hours total exposure time on the Cocoon nebula.
Noel has just processed this one taken a while ago at the NFO. This is the open cluster M52 and lying nearby is the well-known emission nebula – the Bubble nebula. You can see that the Bubble nebula sits within … Continue reading
