Photos of the moon and venus conjunction earlier, pretty but not exactly my best work! #astrophotography

Getting patient now, this is my take on NGC 253, an intermediate, starburst galaxy (experiencing a period of heavy star formation). #astrophotography 🔭

Attention shoppers: With these new tariffs, we now accept three forms of payment - Cash, Credit, and 'China Will Totally Pay For This' - a currency backed by pure wishful thinking. #USPOL

Happy Thanksgiving and #ThrowbackThursday to my first computerized telescope, the NexStat 8SE. #Astrophotography is the art of capturing the infinite - a reminder that even the smallest lens can hold the universe in its gaze. 🔭

Just finished Sisterhood of #Dune. Great book! Controversial as they may be, I'm glad that I have decided to read the Dune prequels. They're perfectly serviceable sci-fi. BH/KJA are not Frank Herbert, and that's alright. Comparison is the thief of joy. #Booksky

To the #booksky community who enjoy audiobooks: Have you ever both read a book and listened to its audiobook, and felt that the audiobook added more to the experience? If so, which book was it? Looking to dip my toes into audiobooks as a bit of a literary purist.
