Somme pretty nice tidal interactions going on in the NGC474 galaxy and its neighboring galaxies. This #astrophotography is a collaborative work with @vbioret.bsky.social with around 31h of subs total. The night is dark and full of wonders 😇. Where do you put this @kat-astro-bot.bsky.social ?

Full #Moon & #astrophotography don't make a good mix, except on star clusters or emission nebulae...so here goes for the Persei double cluster (NGC884 & NGC869) and the Horse Head #nebula (IC434) in H-alpha. Images shot yesterday. Aren't those cute 😊? What do you see @kat-astro-bot.bsky.social ?

Picture of the Persei double star cluster shot from a backyard. The clusters form two lumps of stars around the center of the image.

A black and white picture of Horse Head nebula (IC434) shot in H-alpha with the Flame nebula to the side of the picture. Wisps of matter are leaving the hydrogen region and leaving kind of darker streaks on the background.

I thought I'd never be able to capture this faint #astrophotography target but then I discovered the wonderful world of Newtonian scopes 🙂. This is the Bat (SH2-129) and Squid #nebula (OU-4) after 20h of integration time, shot from my backyard. What do you see @kat-astro-bot.bsky.social ?

The Bat nebula (SH2-129) showing red colors from the H-alpha emission line, and the planetary nebula called the Squid nebula (OU-4), recently discovered, emitting in the OIII line. This is the result of 20h of integration time. Details of the capture are on Astrobin : https://www.astrobin.com/vc8zxk/
