Biden Obama or Clinton would have kept the settlement vs donate to Charity as did Trump

Amazing how much value is lost when he’s out of power

Same thing happened to donations to Clinton foundation after she got smoked in 2016

Maybe these were bribe mechanisms?

Biden said he would not do this but he's proven once again that he is a pathological liar

no: it's dodging a bullet, twice!

great pick: the right people are losing their minds

revenge isn't the correct word: enforcing violations of existing law

either we enforce the laws or we should repeal them

18USC241 has clearly been violated by the FBI, DOJ, various DAs, AGs & Congressional Committees & guilty must be prosecuted

here's another outer shell: this one is the Helix Nebula

it is one of the PNe that has significant Helium II emission (really high energy)

with yellow it includes He2, the other is Nitrogen II/Ha and O3

the grey blob is the Helium II data

this is how mine came out after 40 hours of exposure using an AP155EDF f/7 and a Proline 3200 camera with S2/Ha/O3 filters

I wrote this for S&T in 2005. At the time this S2/Ha/O3 method was new for amateurs & I was the guy that did it 1st

it made a lot of sense to use narrowband filters in bright skies if shooting emission nebulae. It changed everything! Good results from m3 skies

I took this one in 2018 with S2/Ha/O3 filters and is 52 hours of exposure from an AP155EDF f/7 and a Microline29050 camera on an AP1200GTO mount

(NGC7380 "wizard nebula"
November 22, 2024 at 4:36 PM
this is from 2003

1st time I shot this object & I think it may have been the first amateur image using s2/ha/o3

I began that move in astroimaging over 20 years ago. I'm not active now but it's nice seeing people continuing what I started

this was in S&T/2005
