Image of a star that exploded 320 years ago: Cassiopeia A (Infrared + X ray).
This image was presented on AAS Nova today as JWST revealed new features in it.

Full Moon is 0901UT 15 December 2024. Seriously low on the horizon here. Been ages since I captured a Full one on or near a horizon. Here's a pic from June 2022. 🔭 🧪 🎨 #astrophotography #SciArt #photography #StormHour #ThePhotoHour

On 12th August 2025 there will be a super conjunction of Jupiter and Venus. The two brightest planets close together in the early morning eastern sky. 🔭 🧪

With Mars slowly approaching opposition, in eager anticipation I've revisited and reprocessed a few images from the last close approach in 2022.
Sadly #Mars won't get quite as close this season.
This was taken with a Celestron C11, a scope I haven't used for over a year

Tomorrow night will see one of the Astronomical highlights of the year, Jupiter at opposition. It's absolute brightest appearance. 🔭 🧪

Exactly 24 hours until the Jupiter opposition (a faint Ganymede too). Here's one I captured in 2017. 🔭 🧪 🎨 #astrophotography #SciArt #photography #StormHour #ThePhotoHour

I visited Speyer today and learned that it’s illegal there to be anywhere near a road unless you’re carrying a pretzel

Saturn from Thursday evening.
Titan is the bright moon; Rhea is lurking below the rings on the right.
When looking at Titan, I like to try and imagine what it must be like there, shrouded in cloud, with lakes of methane
