The M51 galaxy located in the constellation Canes Venatici 31 MILLION LY away from Earth. Taken using my Celestron EdgeHD with an aperture of 9.25”. From my home in San José, Costa Rica. The light from it traveled for 31 MY to reach my camera.Humbled

My Celestron EdgeHD 8" SCT is for capturing planetary, lunar, and deep space objects such as galaxies, star clusters, and planetary nebulae. When capturing large nebulae, I use my refractor telescope.

For those astronerds that may be interested, these were shot using a Celestron 9.25 EdgeHD w/ Hyperstar on a Celestron CGX mount and ZWO ASI071mc pro cooled camera. Bortle 6 light pollution so used dual narrow band filter. Here is another... the Pelican Nebula (should be Tetradactyl in my opinion)

Our first attempt at the Eagle Nebula, specifically the heart of the eagle.

Messier 63, the Sunflower Galaxy. Just over 9 hours of 10 minute exposures. Celestron EdgeHD 9.25, ZWOASI2600mc pro duo. Bortle 4 skies, no filter. #astrophotography #astronomy

Jupiter, the Great Red Spot, and 3 of the 4 Galilean moons last night.

I captured the Hercules Cluster with my EdgeHD 8" SCT at 1422mm (0.7x reducer) from Bortle 3 skies in Hualien, Taiwan. My friend says it looks like Luke just destroyed the Death Star. 😆

Comet Lemmon last night using my Celestron EdgeHD 800 with reducer. This is 12 30-second exposures in R, G, and B Antlia filters. Acquired with NINA. Processed in Pixinsight and Photoshop. #astrophotography

M57 — The Ring Nebula

Almost 30 hours of LRGB + SHO data with the Celestron EdgeHD 8". I experimented quite a bit with blending the broadband and narrowband data and playing with the colours. A little funky, but I like where it ended up!

M51, aka The Whirlpool Galaxy, interacting with it's dwarf galaxy companion, M51b / NGC 5195. M51 is ~23-31 million light years from Earth, in the constellation Canes Venatici.
