Look Up to the Sky

Showcasing what’s up in the sky for us to see: astronomy (astrophotography with a Dwarf II/3 smart telescope), the northern lights, noctilucent clouds, optical phenomena, and so on.
Our winters are sparse with clear nights, so when it’s unexpectedly clear outside, if only for an hour or so, then you have to act quickly. NGC1499, the California nebula, 199 stacks with the #Dwarf3 by #Dwarflab and edited on the iPad Pro with #LightroomMobile

First light with my brand new #Dwarf3 by #Dwarflab and the build-in duo-band filter is doing a phenomenal job on the Horsehead nebula.Edited on the iPad Pro with Lighroom Mobile.

We are in a solar maximum and the Sun is very active this year (and also next year there will be plenty opportunities for us to see the aurora). On october 10-11 the northern hemisphere was treated on another light show and I had to wait until the early hours for a clear sky #aurora #northernlights

The Perseids meteor shower in the early hours of august 12 showed some nice ones with sometimes smoke visible after meteors burning up in the atmosphere. In the bottom right we see the conjunction of Mars and Jupiter and above them we see the Pleiades star cluster #perseids #meteorshower #pleiades

After 19 years of missing each aurora event (because of weather, obligations elsewhere and so on) I finally got to see the Aurora Borealis on may 10/11 2024 #aurora #northernlights

Although this wasn’t really looking up to the sky, but still we see 3 large ships floating in mid air (2009 Scheveningen Beach in the Netherlands). Can you explain what we see here?

Here we see two photos of the Moon combined into one, as if we see the earthshine lighting up the dark side of the Moon #dwarlab #dwarf2 #moon

The tail of comet C2023A3 Tsuchinsan-ATLAS was so large that I had to take a mosaic of 4 separate photos to get it all (2024-10-25) #dwarflab #dwarf2 #comet
