Almost immediately after you’ve started your astrophotography journey, you’ll discover that Astro imaging data isn’t perfect.

In a recent post on this same blog, our Francesca Waines outlined the main aspects of the DAR

A team of researchers at Lund University, Sweden have discovered that the wave-like ripples experienced by the milky way have been caused by a dwarf galaxy now seen in the Sagittarius constellation.

On the Telescope Live site there are plenty of One Click Observations of the same subject, or of subjects with some overlap. If you dig in it is very possible to pick up some sets that have over 50 hours of data in them!

One of the cool things we can do at Telescope Live is to book Advanced Requests or make suggestions for new One Click Observations. Some would assume that you have to do a named object and leave it centered on that.

Time is ticking for the asteroid Didymos since in just 4 days’ time on the 26th of September NASAs Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) will make its impact as part of the first planetary defence experiment.

Want to be the best astrophotographer in our ever-growing community? Of course you do! 😉 Now it’s possible, with Telescope Live Picture of the Day (TLPOD).

Several of PixInsight’s processes use the concept of Wavelet Based Processing to analyze and process astro images. These types of PI processes include: Multiscale Median Transform (MMT)

I imagine you have ran into a problem with uneven illumination or gradients in some of your images, and sometimes those simply will not calibrate all the way out with flats.

ESA/NASAs Solar Orbiter has made its first closest pass of the sun, revealing clues to the origin of mysterious magnetic switchbacks and how the mechanism of their formation could help accelerate the solar wind.

PixInsight has a process script called Image Annotation, where all the known objects contained in your image can be identified and labeled.

Much of the search for dark matter is focused on the centre of the milky way due to enigmatic structures known as the Fermi bubbles.
