At the heart of the Virgo Cluster is the Markarian's Chain, a string of a dozen galaxies. My image contains it and dozens more outside it. The cluster contains nearly 2000. 🤩 #astrophotography #astronomy #naturephotography #nature #longexposure #galaxy #eastcoastkin #photography

If you're referring to sharpness: 1. Collimate periodically. I use a 2" convex sideview stick on mirror about 400 ft away reflecting a street light as an artificial star. 2. Celestron Motor focus.

Interesting. Found this MIT list web.mit.edu/tripathi/www... and will check my own lunar images for catches.

"All those stars we’ll never get counted or understood. " Why would you say that? Stars are balls of gas & plasma with dense cores where heat generating fusion creates heavier elements. Spectra show us their composition. Astrophysicists understand a lot.
