Got today’s EPOD with a 3D view of DNA. https://epod.usra.edu/blog/2023/01/3-d-view-of-dna.html
Having proved the efficacy of the utterly superb Optolong L-Enhance filters on the 200mm lenses (with ASI 2600MC Pro CMOS cameras) – it was clearly time to fit the same thing to my Sky90s (with Trius M26C OSC CCDs). 2 … Continue reading
Well good old Wolfram Research came through and they have published my Solid Golden Angle in their Notebook Archives. So at least it is now “out there” with a name associated with the discovery. https://notebookarchive.org/the-golden-solid-angle–2022-12-dtu824g/

This is a composite image of the IC410/IC405 region taken using a Sky90 refractor with an M25C OSC CCD and a pair of Canon 200mm prime lenses with ASI 2600MC Pro OSC CMOS cameras. The Sky90 data was 5-hours and … Continue reading
This image is a composite of Sky90 and Hyperstar 4 data only.
This is the central region of the Rosette nebula. This is a composite image created using RegiStar and comprises original Hyperstar, Sky90 and Hyperstar 4 data exceeding 15-hours of total exposure time.
Another hobby of mine is “experimental mathematics” – I think I may have mentioned (ages ago) my Prime number hunting server. Well way back in June 2007 (just before actually) I discovered something that seems to have been overlooked for … Continue reading
Climate change? What climate change? Where’s your proof??? You aren’t going to believe this one. So I suffer from Hayfever – big deal – why are you talking about Hayfever at the end of December?? I know Hayfever symptoms (I’ve … Continue reading
Nice clear night last night and I managed to grab 20 x 10-minute subs with the Canon 200mm prime lenses and the ASI 2600MC Pro CMOS cameras on the Sadr region. A bit perverse imaging Cygnus at the end of … Continue reading
