White Dome Geyser in Yellowstone National Park

The star with an orange tint near top center in this dusty telescopic frame is T Tauri, prototype of the class of T Tauri variable stars. Next to it (right) is a yellow cosmic cloud historically known as Hind's Variable Nebula (NGC 1555). About 650 light-years away, at the boundary of the local...

Earth at night

I do look at them my friend, please keep doing it if you can...if it becomes too much a burden then stop.

From APOD: On the left, the night sky is lit up by particles expelled from the Sun that later collided with Earth's upper atmosphere — creating bright auroras. On the right, the night glows with ground lights reflected by millions of tiny ice crystals falling from the sky — creating light...

The Mare Orientale, Latin for Eastern Sea, is one of the most striking large scale lunar features. The youngest of the large lunar impact basins it's very difficult to see from an earthbound perspective. Still, taken during a period of favorable tilt, or libration of the lunar nearside, the...

MUV is right up there with TL now, at least around here.

James Webb Space Telescope First ever image taken First "selfie"

Its part of the law the way they package...another stupid part it.

From APOD: On the far left is the familiar constellation of Orion, divided by its iconic three-aligned belt stars and featuring the famous Orion Nebula, both partly encircled by Barnard's Loop. Just left of center in the featured image is the brightest star in the night: Sirius. Arching across...

What does Comet Leonard look like up close? Although we can't go there, imaging the comet's coma and inner tails through a small telescope gives us a good idea. As the name implies, the ion tail is made of ionized gas -- gas energized by ultraviolet light from the Sun and pushed outward by the...

Sorry for the back to back but this is a separate thing....condensed video of the SpaceX Cosmo-SkyMed launch...some cool telescope shots in this and of course the landing.

I'll try and get back to posting images again soon...been real busy.

Same as mine, 2.5 ozs which I usually don't come close to. Now concentrate, that's a different story and a very angering one...70 day and right now I'm set at 21 grams, sounds like a lot but its not and I may have to get it raised...we'll see. Just f'n legalize already. Over 60% of residents...

The above or DIY...there is no "official" stand for it.

You might want to get a stand for it...I used a stainless steel wine bottle holder from amazon for pretty cheap. Other than that, good on the WPA's, I've used mine with the LSV and the REFC Labs vape kit.

They have a pretty good stealth fighter themselves...the Chengdu J-20.
