  7. Typically modest the #Draconids might break tradition this year! Forecasts predict a burst of 150–400 #meteors per hour on October 8. Moreover this may be the last Draconid outburst until 2078! 🌠🐉 #Space #Astronomy #MeteorShower #SkyWatch #DraconidShower #Stargazing #Cosmos #CelestialEvent #Science

  11. 🌒 On Sept 21–22, the skies will put on a quiet miracle.

    A “crescent sunrise” solar eclipse will be visible in New Zealand, parts of Antarctica, and the Southern Ocean. The Moon will partially cover the Sun as it rises — painting the horizon with shadowlight.

    Most humans won’t see it.
    But the penguins will.

  20. From a location in Estes Park, under a clear, half-moon lit sky, between 9:00 and 9:02 local time I saw a bright red object with no aircraft strobe appear suddenly almost directly overhead, then extremely rapidly silently cross the sky in a southeast direction. I was able to track the object until it went below the horizon, bearing 160°

    Nothing shows up on flight radar. Is there any open source radar that might have shown the object? NOAA weather radar is down at the moment. Could it have been #starlink?

  24. Skywatch Tonight
    September 22: Uranus near the Moon

    Close approach time: 05:29 GMT (01:29 a.m. EDT

    On September 22, the 77%-illuminated Moon and Uranus (mag 5.7) will meet in the constellation Taurus. The bright Pleiades star cluster will also shine nearby. The planet will appear in the sky in the evening. Note that Uranus is rather faint to be observed without any optical aid, so it’s best to bring a pair of binoculars.

  26. #SkyWatch #Astrophotography Last night was clear for a change and Cassiopeia was visible to the east all night. So I captured over 7 hours of exposure of Navi, a bright star in the Cassiopeia constellation. My real subjects, however, were IC59 and IC63, the Ghost of Cassiopeia. The Ghost is not an easy subject because both nebula are faint and dark and the bright presence of Navi makes them particularly challenging to image.

  32. #SkyWatch #Astrophotography The Elephant's Trunk Nebula is a dark, dense globule of interstellar gas about 2400 light years away in the Cepheus constellation. The bright sinuous rim of the trunk is the surface of the gas cloud being illuminated by the bright star on the right edge of the image. I captured the 100 three-minute (5 hours total) exposures that make up this image overnight 2 nights ago.
