The first beta release of DS9 8.8 (8.8b1 for those that care) is now available - see https://ds9.si.edu/beta/doc/release/r8.8.html for release notes and https://sites.google.com/cfa.harvard.edu/saoimageds9/beta for download.
Cool new stuff includes: the movie script mode, for those who want to direct; support for partial healpix files for those who are intertested in MOC (multi-Order-Coverage) files; and a bump in SSL support, for those who want to access all the astronomy data that's out there.

#astronmy I then tried framing mode with the Seestar S50 on M44. The best shot was 45 minutes exposure of overlapping frames.

Sending out my final batch of solar eclipse glasses. Thanks to everyone who participated. I'm estimating that I gave away about 270 pairs between the annular eclipse and this upcoming one (in person and by mail). Mailed ones get a nice JWST stamp.

Interesting fact for #science #astronmy and #sciencefiction #writers and #authors. A Jupiter-class planet does not get proportionally wider with greater mass, it gets denser and maybe a little wider. Red dwarfs, which are what happens with a Jupiter-class planet gets massive enough the fuse deuterium, may actually be less wide than Jupiter. One such example is 61 J-mass but .89 J-radius!
You want to get this correct. I've read articles that conflate mass and radius, and that renders the article ridiculous. Here is a very interesting article on the subject here:
Why bring this up? A furnace-hot brown dwarf with an angry red glow is front and center (or in the middle of) one of my #sff stories. Would worlds orbiting it be planets or moons?
