At times, the cosmos gives unusual perspectives, here the combination of a bubble NGC 7635 blown by the O Star SAO 20575 - i.e. a young cosmic object some 8000 lyr away, and the open star cluster M52, which is about 4000 lyr away. www.astrobin.com/m3sfsm#astrophotography🔭📷
The Wizard Nebula aka NGC7380 aka Sh2-142 is a Galactic star forming region in the constellation Cepheus and some 10 000 light years away. See www.astrobin.com/rr49nu#astrophotography 🔭📷
Karl-Schwarzschild-Lecture by @antonzensus of @MPIfR_Bonn at the annual meeting of the @GermanAstroSoc
Es ist wieder soweit: Die 1863 gegründete Astronomische Gesellschaft trifft sich zu ihrer Jahrestagung - dem “Klassentreffen” der deutschsprachigen Astronomie, gleichzeitig eine internationale wissenschaftliche Fachtagung. Diesmal ist man zu Gast in Köln.
Celebrating 100yrs of AIP‘s Einsteintower with Brandenburg minister Manja Schüle. As a birthday present we got a vinyl of SAGA, featuring our birthday kid! I am old enough to still remember SAGA, was frequently played at parties when I was 16…. If you don't: www.youtube.com/watch?v=M0Jn...
I am no particular friend of the so-called SHO color palette and its variants, but on objects like the North America Nebula NGC7000 it brings out the contrast really well www.astrobin.com/d0esjc/#astrophotography 🔭📷
What's better than 1 group of gal's - 2 groups! Deer Lick and Stephan's Quintett are close enough together to get them in 1 frame. Blue NGC7320 in SQ "photobombed" the setting - it's not assoc to SQ - and makes ensemble even nicer! www.astrobin.com/6dx0oy/#astrophotography 🔭📷
