Hello Everyone. The nebulosity goes edge to edge on this close-up of an emission nebula. I captured this rework of NGC 7822 from Detroit in 2021. I used my Explore Scientific 127MM refractor telescope and ZWO ASI1600MM camera to capture 27 hours of exposure time.

The Fishhead Nebula. Captured from Detroit. This nebula is located in the Constellation Cassiopeia, approximately 6,000 light-years from Earth. Explore Scientific 127MM telescope ZWO ASI1600MM camera

Hello Everyone, here is my latest capture - the M71 globular cluster at the center surrounded by the dense Milky Way star field. I captured this with my Celestron RASA telescope, ZWO ASI533MC color camera, and an Antlia L-Filter from Starfront Observatories, TX.

My latest. M83, the Southern Pinwheel Galaxy, is 15 million light-years away. It is one of the closest and brightest barred spiral galaxies and is visible with binoculars. Celestron RASA telescope ZWO ASI533MC color camera Antlia L-Filter Starfront Observatories, TX

Hello Everyone, here is my latest project - a close-up inside the Soul Nebula. It's 7,500 light years from Earth. I used my Explore Scientific 127MM Refractor, ASI1600MM camera, and Astronomik narrowband filters to capture this from Detroit.

My latest capture - M98. It's a spiral galaxy about 44 million light-years away. About 750 million years ago, it may have interacted with the large spiral galaxy Messier 99. Celestron RASA telescope ZWO ASI533MC color camera Antlia L-Filter Starfront Observatories, TX.

Hello everyone, here is my latest capture. Messier 68 is a globular cluster that is easily home to over 100,000 stars. It's 33,600 light-years away from Earth. Celestron RASA telescope ZWO ASI533MC color camera Antlia L-Filter Starfront Observatories, TX

There are over 100 billion stars in our Milky Way Galaxy, so I pointed my telescope at a very dense part of it. NGC 6553 (globular cluster) is at the center of this picture. Celestron RASA telescope ZWO ASI533MC color camera, Antlia L-Filter Starfront Observatories, TX

My latest capture. The Trifid Nebula is a star-forming region in the constellation Sagittarius. The red color is from glowing hydrogen, while the blue is from reflected starlight. Celestron RASA telescope ZWO ASI533MC camera Antlia L-Filter Starfront Observatories, TX

My latest capture is a double globular cluster. M9 (lower right), NGC 6356 (upper left). Globular clusters are collections of tens of thousands to millions of stars, tightly bound together by gravity. Celestron RASA scope ZWO ASI533MC camera Starfront Observatories, TX

Here is my latest capture - the Fireworks Galaxy. It gets that name because of the high rate of Supernovae (star explosions) observed, 10 times more than in our Milky Way galaxy. Celestron RASA telescope ZWO ASI533MC camera Antlia L-Filter Starfront Observatories, TX

My latest - the Flower Bud Nebula (NGC 7129). Three young stars near the center are sending jets of supersonic gas, producing the complex nebulosity that appears like a stem of a rosebud. Celestron RASA telescope ZWO ASI533MC camera Antlia L-Filter Starfront Observatories, TX
