Today’s my birthday, probably gonna have some lasagna to celebrate 💅

Been working some more on my astrophotography skills these past few weeks! Here are some random nebulae, star cluster, and galaxies I took some photos of through my telescope🤧

In order: Orion Nebula, Ghost of Jupiter, NGC 2392, Messier 93, Bode's Galaxy, and Sombrero Galaxy

Took some new photos through my telescope tonight!

In order from first to last: Orion Nebula (raw view), Orion Nebula (processed), Beehive Cluster, Christmas Tree Cluster, and the Moon. I'll have to try my hand at the Andromeda Galaxy once it becomes visible at night again later this year

I got an adapter to attach my fancy camera to my computerized telescope and finally figured out how to use it with the correct exposure time and ISO settings to go with my telescope!

I've improved a lot in capturing the Orion Nebula in particular

I’m going to show you a book cover I’ve been staring at for ten minutes with the disclaimer that this isn’t anywhere close to the wildest book cover I’ve ever seen. It simply compels me. It haunts me. It makes me want to go back to the library to check it out.

Anyway it was nearly crazy enough. It was just a competently yet blandly written romance between an Amish single father and a woman with a troubled past, BUT at one point the villain gives his name as Pete Peterson and then 70 pages later someone’s finally like “so that’s probably a fake name” and then the villain’s real name? Phil Phillipson. I’ll bump the book up to a C+ for that alone.
