And also generating some original content with this William Optics setup when clear skies permit ;) But yes this account is indeed work in progress figuring out how to get more of the community involved so reposting is one way.

30°N a bit more to the East in Austin TX here. What's the next target you would like to take a photo of?

Roger that, I'll try PixInsight next time when I process my photos, I just need to find some time to learn it. Are you in the Northern Hemisphere?

You are very welcome, that's a cool photo! There is plenty of space for space here ;)

Hello from planet Earth!

Neat! Big fan of William Optics as well.

Nice! I'm mainly using Photoshop to process mine. What telescope did you use to take this photo?

Another system in my remit is PSR J0614-3329, which is also a binary system.

I really like this pic of the white dwarf companion (pulsar is too small to resolve at ~20km diameter) … but look at the size of that edge on spiral galaxy in the background!

Am looking at a few millisecond pulsars for my PhD. This is my fav - PSR J1713+0747. The problem child.

It threw a tantrum in 2021 and I’m going to figure out why this 8.9 billion year old thing did so.

OR maybe it’s thrown its toys out of the pram in the past but we’ve not been here to see it!

What application do you use to post process the photos?
