Just saw this and had to post...especially for @Vitolo , get those 3D glasses out of your desk again my brother!

Clusters of stars can be near or far, young or old, diffuse or compact. The featured image shows two quite contrasting open star clusters in the same field. M35, on the lower left, is relatively nearby at 2800 light years distant, relatively young at 150 million years old, and relatively...

Should be here Thursday. I will set it up that night and report back.

So I just purchased from the above link and it had a 10% of coupon, grand total shipped, $8.99 :)

What @Shit Snacks said, you are probably dehydrated.

Another SpaceX milestone... https://www.space.com/spacex-starlink-27-10th-falcon-9-rocket-launch-landing-success

Several pages ago, I posted a pic taken from the sky crane of it lowering Perseverance. After seeing the video on 60 minutes tonight of the landing, I said I gotta post that video, so cool. And I forgot to mention in my post above, the first image, look at all the gravitational lensing going on...

Goose-Head Over Heels by Tears for Fears

My 1,000th post! This spectacular view from the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope shows the rich galaxy cluster Abell 1689. The huge concentration of mass bends light coming from more distant objects and can increase their total apparent brightness and make them visible. One such object...

In this evocative night scene a dusty central Milky Way rises over the ancient Andean archaeological site of Yacoraite in northwestern Argentina. The unusual yellow-hued reflection nebula above is created by dust scattering starlight around red giant star Antares. Alpha star of the constellation...

FINALLY!!!! Congrats SpaceX on a fully successful SN15 test flight (other than the video signal, lol). I loved the flap mounted camera, hopefully next time has better video.

That's the one :spliff: Edit: Hmmm...they took down the "list" and I see the bottom right flap is not oriented like the rest of the flaps...I have a bad feeling no flight today...but I'll keep hoping!

Been checking in from time to time on NASASpaceFlights youtube channel...looks good so far. Last I saw the pad was cleared and they are in final checkouts before fueling begins.

STEVE over Copper Harbor, Michigan Strong Thermal Emission Velocity Enhancements (STEVEs) have likely been seen since antiquity, but only in the past five years has it been realized that their colors and shapes make them different from auroras. Seen as single bright streaks of pink and purple...

Thanks to @Chainfish for the idea. I looked on Amazon US for the same or similar, this is the cheapest of this style... https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08RCYW528/ref=crt_ewc_title_srh_1?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=A2KP5ES5GRBNBG

I've been looking at something like this as well.... @Chainfish do you have a link to your stand?

@codexica Here's what I have, not exactly what you're looking for, but I use the second pic variation with my LSV. The first pic is an 18mm/18mm female to male adapter from Aqualab (the 18mm is NOT shown in the pic at Aqualab)(the arrow points to where the screen sits). I then use a generic...

@codexica I might have something at home, I will get back to you tonight about this with a picture of course.
