A dwarf planet in our very own solar system has been discovered with a ring system that may defy physics.

The European AstroFest 2023 has ended, and it was a remarkable experience for us!

Today we are announcing the new contests for February 2023! If you are new to our monthly contests, you should read the general rules first.

Today is podium day!

How to use SPCC for narrowband images

On the 2nd of February 2023 at 4:00 UTC, Comet C/2022 E3 ZTF (also known as the “Neanderthals comet”) amazed us at its brightest, when it reached its minimum distance from the Earth. 

The James Webb Space Telescope has once again lent a helping hand in the uncovering of ground-breaking astrophysical discoveries, this time imaging the darkest, densest clouds in the universe for the first time.

Comet C/2022 E3 ZTF is ready to amaze us at its brightest, reaching its minimum distance from the Earth. And today, you have a unique opportunity to enjoy the show - LIVE!

With great pleasure, we announce that the first CMOS datasets are now available for you to download!

Discussion of CMOS vs CCD cameras

Over the past few decades, astronomers have discovered over 5000 exoplanets through methods of radial velocity, transits, gravitational microlensing and some even through direct imaging and astrometry.

The basics of stacking astro image sub exposures to create a single image.
