M 11, the Wild Ducks, taken while i waited for it to get dark enough to try a Huge Mosaic of the Pipe nebula (which failed).

Under some conditions, visually in a modest sized telescope, M 11 looks like a V of waterfowl (which is where the "Wild Ducks" came from).
An astroimage of M 11, the Wild Ducks. M11 is an open cluster, which means in contains a fairly low number of stars (under 1000), as compared to globular clusters, which can contain hundreds of thousands of stars. This frame contains many background stars because the cluster is in a rich arm of the Milky Way galaxy. The cluster ins at the center of the image, and is quite rich and moderately concentrated. There is an outer halo of stars, more or less round. inside the halo the stars grow more concentrated, and appear to have straight lines on three sides, amost a parallelagram. The innermost part of the cluster shows a pattern almost like a tiny cat, standing facing left, but looking out at you looking at it.

F'ing weather! Clouds and rain every night so I cannot #astroimage during and our club archery field is flooded so I cannot shoot during the day.

I am going to have to find a pastime that doesn't start with 'a'.

Asteroid - 2001 BD 57 is a member of the Main Belt belt which is located between the orbits of Jupiter and Mars.

At the time I captured it in August its magnitude was 17.5 and was fully illuminated

Captured at Great Basin Observatory with a CDK 700. Processed in Astroimage J.

A Tale of Two Nebulae
Image Credit & Copyright: Kent Biggs

This colorful telescopic view towards the musical northern constellation Lyra reveals the faint outer halos and brighter central ring-shaped region of M57, popularly known as the Ring Nebula. To modern astronomers M57 is a well-known planetary nebula. With a central ring about one light-year across, M57 is definitely not a planet though, but the gaseous shroud of one of the Milky Way's dying sun-like stars. Roughly the same apparent size as M57, the fainter and more often overlooked barred spiral galaxy at the left is IC 1296. By chance the pair are in the same field of view, and while they appear to have similar sizes they are actually very far apart. At a distance of a mere 2,000 light-years M57 is well within our own Milky Way galaxy. Extragalactic IC 1296 (aka PGC62532) is more like 200,000,000 light-years distant. Look closely at the sharp 21st century astroimage to spot even more distant background galaxies scattered through the frame.

Here's an astroimage of a young region (in astronomical terms) in the constellation Cepheus. It's about 2900 light-years away and contains stars forming from collapsing parts of the nebula. It also contains a star with one of the highest surface temperatures known. @bot.astronomy.blue signup
The Question Mark Nebula (NGC 7822) in the constellation Cepheus.

Is it possible the stories of the Seven Sisters and Orion are so old our ancestors were telling these stories to each other around campfires in Africa, 100,000 years ago? Could this be the oldest story in the world?

Stunning astrophotograph of the M81 galaxy group, showcasing M81 (Bode's Galaxy) and M82 engaged in a gravitational dance for a billion years. The image, captured with a small telescope and 38 hours of exposure, reveals intricate details of the galaxies' spiral arms, star-forming regions, and the surrounding integrated flux nebulae. The vastness of space is emphasized by the countless stars and distant galaxies in the background, located approximately 12 million light-years away in Ursa Major.

MSAS welcomed Graham Winstanley, who made the trip up th A1 to present this week's meeting.  Graham described his astroimage journey. Starting with a Box Brownie in the 1960s he showed several of his early film cameras and prints before moving onto the '90s and the digital age of amateur images.
