  1. Charon in Enhanced Color

    NASA's New Horizons captured this high-resolution enhanced color view of Charon just before closest approach on July 14, 2015. The image combines blue, red and infrared images taken by the spacecraft's Ralph/Multispectral Visual Imaging Camera (MVIC); the colors are...

  2. I just joined a group of people to share the costs of hosting telescopes at a remote observatory. Having access to Bortle 1 skies makes such a difference ...

    Just finished editing a two-panel mosaic of NGC 7000. 28h total exposure time. It would've taken me like 5x the amount of time to achieve the same exact details from home.

  17. Here we have NGC 5882 -- a planetary nebula!

    Although this isn't the planetary nebula we discussed in this week's episode on the #astronomy of the #constellation Lupus: ( listen here: starrytimepodcast.podbean.com/), it's still a beauty!!!

  18. Conjoined Moons

    Looking like half of a figure eight, two of Saturn moons appear conjoined in this image from NASA Cassini spacecraft. The moon Dione, at the top in the image, is actually closer to the spacecraft, appearing to blend seamlessly with the moon Rhea.

  24. Ganymede At 150,000 Miles

    This picture of Ganymede, Jupiter's largest satellite, was taken by NASA's Voyager 1 on the afternoon of March 5, 1979, from a range of about 250,000 km (150,000 mi.). The center of the picture is at 60 north latitude and 318 longitude, and the distance across the bottom of the photograph is about 1000 km (600 mi.). The smallest features visi...

  35. Mimas Against the Rings

    During its close flyby of Saturn's moon Mimas on Aug. 2, 2005, Cassini caught a glimpse of Mimas against the broad expanse of Saturn's rings. The Keeler Gap in the outer A ring, in which Cassini spied a never-before-seen small moon (see PIA06237), is at the upper right. The ancient, almost asteroid-like sur...

  37. Pluto: On Frozen Pond

    NASA New Horizons spacecraft captured this feature which appears to be a frozen, former lake of liquid nitrogen, located in a mountain range just north of Pluto informally named Sputnik Planum.
