Kiki would like everyone to know when you have an anxiety because the other kitties are misbehaving, you can have a little play and you'll feel better.

My sweet kitty passed away today. She will be missed.

POV: She just wants to nibble your nose. Just a little nibble. C'mon. Just a nibblet.

There were clouds for most of the eclipse, but some cloud breaks allowed for some imaging. It got to around 80% totality where I am.

Clearly I need to learn bsky better. That's Otho's image on the left and Lydia's on the right.

Next is M20, the trifid nebula. This one was looking a lot better from Otho before it became obscured by the balcony railing. I'm guessing Otho isn't as good at detecting and rejecting bad captures.

Oh my God I didn't know the image would stay stretched, I thought that was a preview quirk. Oh well, moving on.

Last night I imaged two Messier objects. This is M15, the Pegasus cluster, as captured by Lydia (left) and Otho (right).

Next, meet Otho. He's a Seestar S50 and he just arrived on Friday. He's named to keep in theme and because of his excellent style.

First, meet Lydia, my Stellina telescope. I've had her since December 2022 and she does a pretty good job. She's named for the Beetlejuice character, as her first image was of Betelgeuse.

Using an image, show a movie you are sure you have watched more than 10 times

Respect an image of the very first game you remember playing
