Aquarius is a faint constellation that is best seen in the autumn months in the northern hemisphere. This constellation is classified as a zodiacal constellation because the Sun passes through its boundaries. Aquarius is an ancient constellation that has multiple stories and legends that reference water. In the sky is it surrounded by other watery creatures, including Capricornus, Delphinus, Pisces and Cetus. Explore the stories behind this pattern, discover the easiest ways to find this constellation, and examine the celestial objects that lie within boundaries of Aquarius. 0:33 - Overview of Aquarius 3:38 - Pattern of Aquarius 7:16 - Celestial Objects in Aquarius 8:53 - Mythologies and Legends of Aquarius 11:18 - Review of Aquarius 12:28 - Photo Attributes Do you speak another language?

In this video, Keith Latiolais shows you how to set up an 8" Celestron Schmidt Cassegrain Telescope (SCT) on a German Equatorial Mount (GEM). Keith also takes you through the entire setup process, including the 2 star alignment process and polar alignment. Finally, he give you a few bonus "tips" to help make your observing experience easier, and more enjoyable.

Are you interested in amateur astronomy and supporting Deep Astronomy ? Use this link to shop at OPT (aff link): http://bit.ly/2Wq0BO8 There is a new telescope for amateurs that promises to get our night skies back. The eVscope is a revolutionary new telescope that uses light amplication technology to enhance what human eyes are seeing through the eyepiece. Coupled with automatic field detection and goto capabilities, the eVscope promises to revolutionize visual observing. The eVscope also promises to improve contributions to citizen science through a worldwide network of telescopes. Please join Tony Darnell as he discusses this amazing new telescope with Franck Marchis of SETI and Unistellar Head of Communications Ludovic Nachury.

Our award-winning sky shows are not to be missed. They inspire audiences of all ages to #LookUp in wonder. Imagine the Moon, search for a new ninth planet, take a fast-paced tour of the Solar System, get to know the sky above Chicago, and fly through the stars at impossible speeds in one of our state-of-the-art dome theaters.

For northern hemisphere observers, Messier 93 is fairly low in the southern sky, so timing is important to see this open cluster well. This video details how to find the cluster in the constellation of Puppis with binoculars or a small finderscope from a nearby 3rd magnitude star. It also covers how to observe this object with a telescope. See what's up in the night sky every week with "Eyes on the Sky" videos, astronomy made easy. www.eyesonthesky.com

Ever think to yourself, “What makes this machine work?” Well, look no further! In this talk, Chris goes over the arcane art of software engineering and how it is utilized to transform the individual pieces of a telescope into a working machine. Christopher Contaxis is the father of one, avid amateur astronomer, and long-time software engineer. He has been writing software for 23 years-everything from video games, web sites, and telescope control systems, as a former LSST Software Engineer working on the primary/tertiary mirror control system. His mission as an engineer is to reach the simplest solution to the problems that need solving and demystify the process of software development for those who are curious.

How did planetariums go from showing the movements of the Sun, Moon, and other planetary bodies with astronomical clocks to using cutting edge visualization software? In this video, learn about the evolution of these scientific tools and the latest technology being used inside our own Hayden Planetarium that lets visitors be transported to other worlds. #Planetarium #History #AstronomyHistory #Astrophysics #AMNH #Museum #NeildeGrasseTyson Worlds Beyond Earth is dedicated to the memory of Charles Hayden in celebration of the 150th anniversary of his birth and made possible by the generous support of the Charles Hayden Foundation.
