IC433 The Jellyfish Nebula in Gemini is the remnant of a supernova explosion from 5,000 years ago. Hydrogen within the molecular cloud is excited by the shock waves from the supernova creating the lattice like filaments.

This is approx 4hrs of 3min subs using a William Optics Zenithstar 61 telescope and ZWO ASI 533 MC-Pro camera

Fully stripped down and rebuilt so it’s balanced and secure. I’ve also found somewhere to attach the red dot finder.

A shamelessly over processed image from last night's session. So much light pollution made it hard (should have put the filter on) but I've learned so much from all the mistakes I made! And having a lot of fun.

I've never managed to get all the kit to work until now so this has made me so happy. I've taken photos of the Orion Nebula before but it's always been hit or miss, and never with a properly polar aligned mount or a guide scope. It's incredible the difference it makes. I'm hooked all over again!

40 x 30sec light frames, 3 x dark frames. Stacked in Affinity Photo

Up and running. Loving the ASIAir Pro. Finally managed to plate solve and polar align within 4” error (I thank you). Sadly by the time I was set up the moon had come out to spoil the party so no comet tonight. Having a go at the Orion Nebula instead 🤞

My 1st attempt imaging the . It needs way more data, but this was 89 x 90 seconds + 35 darks, taken from Oxfordshire with an astro-modded with a light pollution clip filter attached to a 70mm refractor

M42 Orion Nebula

Zenithstar 61 with ZWO ASI 533MC Pro and Optolong L-Pro filter.

Just under 2hrs of integration - tried to bring out the trapezium and some of the surrounding dust but have blown it out a little.

2 years ago today we imaged the . They were so close together than they were visible at the same time in the eyepiece of our 70mm refractor! They were even closer on 21st December but we had solid cloud/rain that night. We will never see them this close again in our lifetime so I'm really happy we got to see this 🙂
