Having published astrophotographer David Blanchflower (his lunar phase photos work is amazing btw glad I found he’s moved to Bluesky and left the bird site too) unexpectedly like one of my absurd humor posts is one of today’s highlights.
Now if only I could make Damian Peach smirk. 😼

3/ The couple initially sees a hazy orb, followed by the large craft gliding smoothly from northwest to east, resembling a ghostly, ethereal “stingray.” The astrophotographer knows of no comparable man-made object that can fly that fast.

NASA Astronomy Hourly Picture - 2013-12-17: Geminid Meteors over Teide Volcano
#Astronomy #NASA #Space
On some nights it rains meteors. Peaking two nights ago, asteroid dust streaked through the dark skies of Earth, showering down during the annual Geminids meteor shower. Astrophotographer Juan Carlos Casado captured the space weather event, as pictured above, in a series of exposures spanning about 2.3 hours using a wide angle lens. The snowcapped Teide volcano of the Canary Islands of Spain towers in the foreground, while the picturesque constellation of Orion highlights the background. The star appearing just near the top of the volcano is Rigel. Although the asteroid dust particles are traveling parallel to each other, the resulting meteor streaks appear to radiate from a single point on the sky, in this case in the constellation of Gemini, off the top of the image. Like train tracks appearing to converge in the distance, the meteor radiant effect is due to perspective. The astrophotographer has estimated that there are about 50 Geminids visible in the above composite image -- how many do you see? Budget Universe: Free APOD 2014 Calendar in PDF format

Luminance Stacking Progress: 0 to 103 hours - From Rolf Wahl Olsen - https://flic.kr/p/wE6Jw4
How much data is enough? In my view one can never have enough data; there is always something more waiting to be revealed and excavated from the background noise in an image. For the Antlia Galaxy Cluster (Abell S0636) Extreme Deep Field image I gathered 152 hours over 55 clear nights (January to June 2015). This is my longest exposure yet and the longest, I believe, of any amateur astrophotographer. This is likely one of the deepest ground based images ever taken by either amateur or professional telescopes and the faint Intracluster Light visible between the two subgroups doesn't seem to be described in literature. Above is a collage of stacks made using the Luminance portion of this data (103 hours in total). The progressive improvement in signal to noise ratio is obvious. Also evident is the fact that the integration time needs to approximately double before a significant improvement is reached. It has been a humbling experience to gather and process all this data. When I embarked on this project I specifically wanted to obtain a very deep view of a galaxy cluster, but I certainly did not expect to uncover such a treasure trove of features in this one little patch of sky. The entire image seems to be bursting with action, ranging from the varied and colourful cluster members themselves to obscure ultra-faint dwarf galaxies, Intracluster Light and Integrated Flux Nebula, red filaments from an ancient supernova remnant and a generous number of deeply reddened extremely...

Astro Pro-Am: Professional and Amateur Astronomers Join Forces - From Rolf Wahl Olsen - https://flic.kr/p/nhBUCh
Collaboration with NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory Center This image is the result of a collaboration between NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory Center and amateur astrophotographer Rolf Wahl Olsen. It is part of a series of professional-amateur collaboration images and was combined by Science Imager Joseph DePasquale from Chandra X-ray Observatory Center, using both X-ray, optical and infrared data. The image is composed of the following data: My deep 120 hour optical image Centaurus A Extreme Deep Field taken over 43 nights in 2013. 230 hours of Chandra X-ray data gathered over the past 15 years. Infrared data from NASA's Spitzer Space Telescope. The combined exposure time is in excess of an astonishing 350 hours, or two weeks; more than the Hubble Ultra Deep Field. Below are links to the official press releases including the other spectacular images in the series (M101, M81 and M51) with optical data by German astrophotographer Detlef Hartmann: Chandra Press Release Spitzer Press Release Individual images for download For full details on the Centaurus A Extreme Deep Field project please visit my Centaurus A gallery If you are an amateur astrophotographer, or even just an 'armchair astronomer', and would like to get involved with astronomical research then the International Astronomical Union has an excellent page with information on how to get involved in citizen science projects or Pro-Am collaborations.
