Saturn from early this morning! Sometimes I can't believe we have a planet in our solar system that really looks like this.

you might know me as mario, but I'm also astrophotography man
M13 (ft. NGC 6207 and IC 4617) from 2 nights ago! Just 2.5 hrs exposure, quite happy with how this one turned out. According to wikipedia it's "often described by astronomers as the most magnificent globular cluster visible to northern observers." And, yeah, I agree

Quick pic of globby M3 from last night 😃 An 11.4 billion year old cluster of half a million stars located 34,000 light years away 2.5 hours exposure with an 8" f/10 SCT reduced 0.65x. SCT astrophotography has been challenging and this isn't perfect but I'm pretty happy with how it turned out!
More context on this #Artemis II image: * This is the night side, lit by moonlight. You can see city lights in Spain & Portugal, & a sliver of day at lower right * The Sun is entirely behind Earth, which makes it a kind of solar eclipse, but w/ Earth doing the eclipsing instead of the Moon: ☀️🌍🚀🌕
Another year, another pic of the orion nebula :) Our nearest star forming region; so bright you can see it with the naked eye, even in the most light polluted places Got the data for this back in december but had so many setbacks i just now successfully processed it haha
Recently got this picture of Pleiades and the surrounding nebula 😁 One of our nearest star clusters, about 444 ly away and only 100m years old. The nebula looks blue due to trace amounts of carbon present The star cluster is very bright, you can easily see it in the night sky this time of year!
Pic of Andromeda I've been working on for like a month :) our nearest galactic neighbor
Took a pic of the dumbbell nebula (M27), a remnant of a dying star. August 31, 4.5 hours total integration time
This is a new image from #JWST. The bright points with spikes are stars in the Milky Way. Everything else is a galaxy. Everything. Else. Is. A. Galaxy.
The M81 group, from left to right: the garland galaxy, bode's galaxy, and the cigar galaxy. Imaged across 2 nights last weekend
Globular cluster M3 from Saturday night, a cluster of ~500,000 stars 32,000 ly away. These clusters are some of the oldest objects in the galaxy, this one is about 11.4 billion years old
dippin my toes into deep sky astrophotography, here's the Orion nebula :)
