ASTROPHOTOGRAPHY

I have lots of new astrophotography equipment to try out. At the end of the video, I build my calibration (Bias and Darks) library. Here is a rundown of everything in the video: Astrophotography camera: ZWO ASI1600MM PRO COOLED MONOCHROME CMOS CAMERA Focal reducer: Orion 8894 0.8x Focal Reducer for Refractor Telescopes Broadband and Narrowband filter set: Optolong 1.25" Filter Set with LRGB, H-Alpha, SII, and OIII AC to DC Power Converter: AstroAI AC to DC Converter, 10A 120W 110-220V to 12V Car Cigarette Lighter Socket Telescope cover: Orion 15206 Cloak Cover for Large Mounted Telescopes Follow me on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/chucksastrophotography/

Not flexing, just an insane demo about how the new iMacs multicore cpus (and 16mb graphics card) just eats up the resources that PixInsight uses to process images. I also share the last couple of nights astrophotography work with the Celestron RASA 8 telescope and the M8 Lagoon nebula!

The Eagle Nebula (catalogued as Messier 16or M16, and as NGC 6611, and also known as the Star Queen Nebula and The Spire) is a young open cluster of stars in the constellation Serpens, discovered by Jean-Philippe de Chéseaux in 1745–46. Both the "Eagle" and the "Star Queen" refer to visual impressions of the dark silhouette near the center of the nebula, an area made famous as the "Pillars of Creation" imaged by the Hubble Space Telescope. In this presentation I hand focused my 254 mm Newtonian imaged LRGB at 25 x30 seconds exposures. The nebula contains several active star-forming gas and dust regions, including the aforementioned Pillars of Creation.

I tested out my new ZWO ASI294MC-Pro dedicated astronomy camera this last Saturday night from a Bortle 3 zone in the Sierra Mountains. I have to say this is a major improvement over my DSLR. To document my first light with this camera, and since I did not need my Canon T6i for imaging that night, I used my DSLR to create this Milky Way timelapse. The timelapse goes from 10 PM to 12:30 AM and is comprised of 400 individual 15 second exposures. The deep sky object I photographed with my new camera is the Whirlpool Galaxy (M51). I’ve included my image of the Whirlpool Galaxy at the end of the timelapse, plus added a little music to make it fun. Specs for image of M51 Lights: 50 frames at 180 seconds (2.5 hours), Unity Gain, cooled to 0 Degrees Celsius, Darks: 20, Flats: 20 Explore Scientific ED102 CF – FCD100, Orion Sirius EQ-G Mount, ASI294MC-Pro Camera Image Capture in Astrophotography Tool, Guiding Phd2, Stacked in Deep Sky Stacker, Post Processed in Adobe Lightroom Royalty Free Audio track: Art of Silence, provided by Uniq (YouTube)

What can you see this month? In the August sky, look for the "shooting stars" of the annual Perseid meteor shower for some stargazing delights, but be warned — the bright Moon will overwhelm the fainter meteors this year. Plus, the Moon's evening visits to Jupiter and Saturn.

Deep Sky Astrophotography using a DSLR camera and telescope. In this video, I'll walk you through the process of taking a picture of a nebula (Cocoon Nebula) from my backyard using a DSLR camera and a small telescope. Attaching a camera to a telescope, polar alignment, autoguiding, and running a sequence of images are some of the many topics covered in this video. I touch on the core aspects of deep sky astrophotography, and share my personal results using a DSLR camera and telescope in the backyard. My Telescope: http://bit.ly/2ydEm31 Full Article: https://astrobackyard.com/beginner-deep-sky-astrophotography/ Thank you all for taking the time to watch my videos!

In this video I photograph the Omega Nebula from the backyard... again. I've photographed this deep sky object several times, but I realized I didn't have the "reach" I needed. So, this time, I pointed the William Optics FLT 132 towards M17, and 925mm proved to be just enough. Due to a smokey sky, I was pushed out of my broadband imaging window into narrowband territory. I used the Optolong L-eNhance dual band pass filter this time, but I am very excited to the try the IDAS NGS1 next time!

A transit of the planet Mercury across the Sun will take place on November 11, 2019 when the planet Mercury passes directly between the Sun and Earth, becoming visible against the solar disk. During the transit, Mercury will appear as a tiny black dot moving across the disk of the Sun. #mercurytransit #astrophotography #astronomy

In this video I will Introduce you to a new software called PEMPro. This will help you take unguided images without tracking issues. I captured North America Nebula using the PEMPro Playback.

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!

While the moon was still over 90% illuminated, I decided to look for another narrowband target for protection again all that light. I grabbed 6 hours of Ha and OIII data on the Owl Nebula and combined it was 10.1 hours I had on it last year. The Owl nebula wasn't very big so I drizzled it and did come major cropping to bring it in closer. I also was able to capture data on a massive solar storm last week that many were hoping would cause a Northern Lights show. But the Northern Lights failed to appear. Here is more information on the hardware and software: Target: Owl Nebula (M97) Imaging Telescope: Explore Scientific 127mm ED Refractor (952 focal length) Focuser: MoonLite 2.5" Focuser with Motor Auto-Focus Field Flattener: HoTech 2" SCA Field Flattener Mount: Celestron CGX Polar Alignment: QHYCCD PoleMaster Imaging Camera: ZWO ASI1600MM-Cool Frames: Astronomik Ha: 102x180" (gain: 139, offset: 21) Astronomik Ha: 60x240" (gain: 139, offset: 21) Astronomik OIII: 150x120" (gain: 139, offset: 21) Astronomik OIII: 30x240" (gain: 75, offset: 15) Integration:16.1 hours Guide scope: Orion ST80 Guide Camera: Lodestar X2 Guide Software: PHD2 Calibration Frames: Darks: 50, Bias: 50, Flats: 50 Capture software: Sequence Generator Pro (SGP) Stacking software: PixInsight Post Processing: PixInsight, PhotoShop Dew Shield, Dew Heater Strip Astrobin: https://astrob.in/397371/0/ Target: Solar Storm: Telescope: ES AR102 Camera: ZWO ASI183MM (non-cooled) Filter: DayStar Quark Mount: Celestron AVX Focuser: Rigel Systems Frames: 77 across 60 minutes Astrobin: https://astrob.in/397093/0/ #owl #solarstorm #narrowband

Capturing and processing the Monkey Head nebula was one year in the making. I captured Ha and OIII last year but ran out of time before I could capture SII. Then I almost forgot about it this year, but finally grabbed some SII this week to finish the Hubble Palette on it.

In astrophotography, dithering your sub frames is an amazing noise removal technique. In this video I stack two sets of data to show the benefits of dithering in astrophotography and how dramatic the noise removal is! I use PixInsight to stack the photos and do a small histogram stretch to reveal the noise. But it's important to know that this works regardless of the stacking and/or processing software you have.

I’ve just returned from a vacation to Costa Rica with the goal of capturing some astrophotography images from the resort. I decided to capture the beautiful Carina Nebula with my DSLR camera, as it is so large and bright. Being so close to the equator, the night sky featured many new southern sky deep sky targets I had never seen before.

This is a brief discussion on matching up an astrophotography camera to a telescope. Topics covered are whether the pairing is oversampled or undersampled and takes into consideration the camera's pixel size in microns, the focal length of the telescope, and image scale. Not covered are seeing conditions that can also play a major role. #astrophotography #camera #telescope

The 8" ROWE-ACKERMANN SCHMIDT ASTROGRAPH (RASA 8) is really a telescope I would like to own. I think it's probably just a matter of 'when'. The RASA '11 inch' is a little out of the price range I'm willing to spend at the moment. Here is more information pulled from Celestron's website: * Flat field free of optical aberrations like field curvature, coma, astigmatism and chromatic aberration across an entire APS-C sensor. * Unlike the larger RASA that work with DSLR and large CCD cameras, the 8” model was designed with color astronomical CMOS cameras, smaller CCD cameras, and mirrorless cameras in mind. * The telescope does not work with standard DSLR cameras. * Ultra-Stable Focus System – six precision sealed ball bearings virtually eliminate image shift. * Integrated air cooling system –12V DC MagLev fan reduces cooldown time and provides optimal air flow while filtering out dust. * Internal filter mount – seamlessly accommodates a Light Pollution Imaging Filter into the optical path. * CGE dovetail mounting rail. #celestron #rasa #telescope

Orion Nebula HDR Photoshop Tutorial To produce an astrophotography image of the Orion Nebula with a high dynamic range, it is best to blend a set of varying exposure lengths together. In this video, I combine an image set of 3-minute exposures (stacked) at ISO 800, with a set of 10-second exposures. This helps to reveal the subtle details of the bright core of the Orion Nebula.

There's a new comet in town and it goes by the name Comet Iwamoto (C/2018 Y1). The comet is traveling at a speed of 147,948 miles per hour. I was battling a lot of haze last night, but I kept my telescope pointed at this patch of sky for 50 minutes and captured a very speedy comet. This video is a processing tutorial on how to capture and animate a comet and also how to execute batch processes in PixInsight using the Image Container and Process Container.
