Masking is a mystery to some people when processing their astrophotos. It doesn’t have to be. I must admit, I am not a big fan of the masking tools in PixInsight.

Telescope Live has quite a bit of data from SPA-1, SPA-3,. and AUS-2. They are all Takahashi FSQ 106 setups that have been reduced to 380mm focal length, I imagine using the matched Takahashi .73 reducer for that scope.

Many of our members on this Telescope Live Page, including me, like to share images we’ve processed with all of our members, not just to show work we’re particularly proud of but also to show what can be done with Telesco

The European Space Agency’s Gaia mission has released its third data set, creating ‘the most accurate and complete multi-dimensional map of the Milky Way yet’ along with quite a few interesting discoveries being made by a

In late May, a collaborative study, led by Kailash Suhu, was published claiming that they had managed to identify the first ever isolated black hole, identified by shorthand as OB11046.

The winners of this contest have already been announced.

I read a recent post from a new member to our Telescope Live community who is also a new Silver Member to the Telescope Live website.

The supermassive black hole at the centre of the Milky Way, Sagittarius A* (Sgr A*), has been a remarkably notable structure this year in astronomy.

A mysterious but persistent radio signal has been detected by astronomers from the CHIME/FRB Collaboration.

"After deep consideration, the time felt right to share these items with the world, which for many are symbols of a historical moment, but for me have always remained personal mementos of a life dedicated to science a

The James Webb Telescope (JWST) made history with the deepest, highest resolution image of the cosmos ever seen. Can you imagine something four times more powerful and ground-based here on Earth?

Sometimes you see something you want to capture, but maybe one telescope is much wider than you want, but another gives too narrow of a FoV.
