Here is an initial effort to capture Saturn with its rings almost edge-on with the 7" Orion Maksutov-Cassegrain from last night. Forecast is for great seeing tonight so I will try again! #astrophotography

I've never been much of a planetary imager so I thought I'd try and improve! Jupiter this evening using a 127mm Maksutov-Cassegrain and a ZWO ASI662 camera. Best 5% of 5000 frames stacked in AutoStakkert and processed in PixInsight. Io (left) and Callisto visible too. #astrophotography #astronomy 🔭

We pay tribute to the heroic men and women who stood to fight the Russian invaders.
They will not be forgotten.
RIP – Oleksandr Maksutov (53), Dmytro Sirenko (24), Ihor Severenchuk, Sri Lankan fighter Andrew James
These put their bodies
Between us and the flaming skies
Eternal Memory!

Had another go at #Jupiter last night with my trusty 18cm maksutov in my backyard in Purmerend, the Netherlands. With the Great Red Spot, too. #astrophotography 🔭
Stil have lots of data to go through, so more to come :)

Here's one with my D750 using a Meade 1000mm focal length f11 90mm diameter Maksutov-Cassegrain mirror lens. I think I used 1/200 second exposure.

Saturne, ce matin, au télescope de 180 mm (Maksutov) depuis mon balcon. Le seeing était assez bon, pour un résultat plutôt sympathique.

Petite Vénus du soir, au télescope Maksutov de 180 mm, depuis mon balcon, en pleine turbulence urbaine liée à la canicule. On voit quand même les nuages de la planète grâce à un filtre UV.

Rapides observations de la Lune, en fin croissant et basse sur l'horizon , en tout début de nuit (29 mai). Images prises au télescope Maksutov de 180 mm avec une caméra ZWO ASI224MC.

This lunar image is with a “new” Orion 7” Maksutov-Cassegrain lunar, planetary, and bright DSO telescope I just purchased. I stacked 150 fits files in Affinity Photo in 6 stacks and stitched them together producing a high resolution result. More details: app.astrobin.com/i/0ujkal #astrophotography

Most Mare Imbrium shots (most moon shots in general?) seem to be taken during the waxing phase. Here's the only one I captured during the waning phase at 4 AM, after a Mars session two years ago. (Gear: 7" Maksutov at 5.4 meters focal length) #astrophotography #moon

Here's a pic of my main astrophotography rig.
The main scope is a Skywatcher 190mm Maksutov-Newtonian, which has a focal length of 1000mm at f5.3. It has a Maksutov corrector lens on the front (hidden by the dew-shield in the pic) that gives it a nice flat field & holds the secondary mirror. 🔭

Well the clouds did eventually clear again, but as I didn't set up the Eq mount, this is the best I could manage, with the limb cut off due to it drifting across the eyepiece field. #lunareclipse 🔭 #astrophotograohy
