Get read for the solar #eclipse: on 5th August, Dynamic Earth in #Edinburgh will be holding an event preparing for the eclipse. Book here: dynamicearth.org.uk/event/get-re... We will be helping with a selection of 🔭, and @astroroyalscot.bsky.social will be there answering questions.

There will be plenty of media coverage, hints and tips, and some hype around the upcoming Partial Solar Eclipse. This advice is absolutely critical. Enjoy the Eclipse safely!

Never look at the Sun directly with the naked eye and only use equipment certified to do so safely. You will permanently damage your eyesight otherwise.

An engaging and wide-ranging presentation. I’d also recommend watching! 🔭

A fascinating talk on how modern astronomy has evolved. Well worth a watch at the link below. 🔭

#Seestar S50 🔭 collaboration. 39 hours of M101 data gathered this year and last year. Individual stacked subs combined weighted according to total exposure time. This image processed by @mikechristie.bsky.social. #astrophotography

Two great reasons to be a part of this Society - the Smart Scope Project encourages you to gather data and create your own image; and add it to the mix to create a collaborative image! We’ve got some excellent results! 😀❤️🔭

We've just published a report on the power of collaborative imaging with multiple Seestars 🔭. 5 or 6 people (or more!) imaging the same target, and submitting their stacked images for further processing. #astrophotography #Seestar www.astronomyedinburgh.org/2026/03/15/m...

M42, The Great Orion Nebula, as seen by my ZWO Seestar S50 and DWARFLAB DWARF II Smart Telescopes. 6-7 mins worth of exposures, each lightly processed in Lightroom. 🔭 #astronomy #astroimaging
