At Telescope Live, we understand that competition is an exciting part of the astrophotography pursuit. We all want to be the best we can be – and nothing feels better than recognition from our peers.

So, taking a cue from my last post I decided to try and tackle processing mosaic data into an image.

Chemists have found an answer as to why astronomers observe comets with green heads, but no green tails.

There is a measure in astronomy that is called full width at half maximum (FWHM).

After numerous delays to the launch of the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), this historical date has been confirmed: 25th December 2021.

I would like to talk to you about a technique I use for killing glow around bright stars when you accidentally image during a night that has more moisture in the air than you would think.

In this blog post, I want to discuss some changes we will introduce in the new year.

Well, it’s December.

Because Telescope Live takes care of calibration when delivering finished FITS files for One-Click, Pro Data Sets (deprecated), and even Advanced Requests, they don’t get talked about much.

Although everyone has their eyes set on the upcoming launch of the James Webb Space Telescope, NASA has placed another satellite into orbit this week: IXPE.

The winners of this contest have already been announced.

Being astro imagers, over time we've developed good problem solving skills. We've had to in order to be competent doing this kind of thing.
