Clarence Spencer teaches the 2019 Nightscaper Conference everything we ever wanted to know about Cameras modified for Astrophotography! Get better reds and color out of your nebulae and low-contrast deep sky objects! Bring out detail in your core without high ISO if that is what you love. Basically, get the MOST YOU CAN out of your Astrophotography camera by modding it. In fact, the crazy unexpected favorite modifcation Clarence offers at Spencer's Camera & Photo is the AA filter! At the conference we all thought even more about modifying our camera when we saw the change when the AA filter was removed! Go to 42:42 and tell me what you think!

Kosovichev (New Jersey Institute of Technology) Listening to the Sun: The Sonification of Solar Harmonics Timothy Larson (Moberly Area Community College) Q&A

Join astrophysicist Dr. Paige Godfrey on Monday, June 10 beginning at 8 p.m. EDT (00:00UTC) for one of our favorite astronomical events of the year --- the mighty gas giant Jupiter at opposition. Our host will explain what we are seeing through our telescopes at both the Canary Islands and Chile observatories as we focus on our Solar System’s largest planet throughout the night. Being in opposition means that Earth will pass between Jupiter and the Sun and we will get one of the closest and longest looks we have of the planet all year as it is visible all night long. Jupiter won’t be the only focus. The last time Slooh covered this event on April 7, 2017, there were only 67 known moons orbiting Jupiter. Today we know of at least 79, and the Galilean satellites, the four largest moons Io, Europa, Ganymede and Calisto will be part of the show as well. Remember that the enormity and brightness of Jupiter make its moons appear tiny in comparison, but these objects are some of the largest known bodies after the Sun and planets in our Solar System. We will be able to see all four moons as they orbit the planet, with Io (the closest moon) passing behind Jupiter during the second half of the night (known as an occultation). Jupiter makes one complete rotation on its axis in just under ten hours (a Jovian day), so this makes for a quickly changing backdrop and allows Slooh’s experts to explain many of the Jovian features we will see that night, including the largest storm in the Solar System - the Great Red Spot. By the end of the night, members will be able to map the entire surface of the planet using the images they capture from the Chile telescopes.

May 15, 2019 Dr. Ross Beyer (SETI Institute) Pluto’s large moon Charon turned out to be far more interesting than astronomers expected. Pluto was the star of the New Horizons show, but the features on Charon’s surface tell a fascinating tale of how icy worlds could form far from the gravitational influences of the giant planets. There is evidence of a world-wide sub-surface ocean early on, and of global expansion as that ocean froze solid. Dr. Beyer is your expert (and humorous) guide through this story of formation and change in the frozen reaches of the outer Solar System.

But Hubble's abilities are soon to be eclipsed by several space and ground-based telescopes with bigger mirrors and data collection and analysis than the world has ever seen. James Webb Space Telescope The successor to Hubble, the James Webb will feature a 6.4 meter mirror, dwarfing the 2 meter mirror on Hubble. It will focus on the infrared spectrum and will see further into the past than ever before. It's currently scheduled to launch in 2021, but has been delayed multiple times. WFIRST The Wide Field Infra Red Survey Telescope will have the same resolution as Hubble, but will be able to image 100x more of the sky at once. The plan was to use it in conjunction with the James Webb to find interesting targets. It is in danger of being cancelled later this year. LUVOIR The Large UV/Optical/Infrared Telescope would have a mirror between 8 and 16 meters wide and will collect light in all wavelengths. This is a massive space telescope that is too big for any current rockets, though could be carried up on the SLS, New Glenn, or SpaceX Starship. Thirty Meter Telescope This massive ground-based telescope has faced numerous delays due to native Hawaiians protesting it being built on Mauna Kea, which they consider sacred land. This telescope would have 20x the power of Hubble. Extremely Large Telescope Currently being built in the Atacama desert of Chile, this 39-meter wide mirror will focus on the infrared spectrum and should answer some of the biggest questions about universal expansion. Large Magellan Telescope Constructed out of 7 8-meter wide mirrors - the largest in the entire world - this telescope is the simplest of the telescopes, which should allow for optimal optics. FAST This Chinese radio telescope took the prize from Arecibo in Puerto Rico as the largest telescope in the world, and even though they're still calibrating it, it has already discovered dozens of pulsars. Large Synoptic Survey Telescope While not impressively huge, the LSST is exciting because of how it will be used - to scan the entire sky every 3 days. Over 10 years, the amount of data this telescope will produce will equal 50 petabytes and could help find new planetary objects in our own solar system.

It’s the year 2028, and the European Space Agency has been carefully monitoring a worrying situation: an enormous asteroid is en route to strike Earth, although the exact point of impact is not yet clear. National governments are planning to evacuate millions of people, an undertaking that will cause untold human misery and disruption on a gigantic scale. If the asteroid’s impact zone can be fixed, perhaps such chaos can be avoided. As precious hours pass, find out how ESA’s Planetary Defence Office is able to obtain crucial information on this potential disaster as part of the Agency’s Space Safety activities. Back to the present day: Find out more about how ESA is preparing to protect our pale blue dot, its inhabitants and the vital satellite systems on which we have become so dependent.

The official movie for ESO's 50th anniversary, Europe to the Stars, takes the viewer on a 58-minute journey behind the scenes at the most productive ground-based observatory of the world. Science, history, technology, people... The movie captures the story of its epic adventure — a story of cosmic curiosity, courage and perseverance. The story of discovering a Universe of deep mysteries and hidden secrets. The story of designing, building and operating the most powerful ground-based telescopes on the planet. The movie consists of eight chapters each focusing on an essential aspect of an observatory, while putting things in perspective and offering a broader view on how astronomy is made. From site testing and explaining the best conditions for observing the sky to how telescopes are built and what mysteries of the Universe astronomers are revealing.

Telescope Talk Hangouts are sponsored by OPT Telescopes: https://bit.ly/2SwhmVB The Extremely Large Telescope is a 40 meter segmented primary mirror telescope being built right now high in the mountains of Chile. The telescope will become the largest optical, near-infrared telescope in the world and will showcase some of the latest technology. Among that technology is adaptive optics, the system that allows ground-based telescopes to perform on par with space-based systems while under the blanket of the atmosphere. Please join Tony Darnell as he talks about the AO systems being designed for the ELT with Thomas Pfrommer, and astronomer at the ESO facility in Munich, to discuss this amazing system.
