Having successfully navigated the 3% descent into town a U789 train of loaded taconite pellets from Minntac is pulling into the Two Harbors receiving yard at the south end of CN's North Division Iron Range Subdivision mainline. The standard three pack of ex CNW C40-8s have a train of modern CN era ore cars (over 1000 of which were acquired between 2009 and 2018) on the historic former Duluth, and Iron Range side of the railroad which saw its first load of ore arrive from Soudan mine in 1884. Immediately behind the locomotives is the dumping shed that feeds a conveyor that can send pellets to the stockpile or to the pockets on the south side of Dock 2. This system was installed in 1978 when half the tracks were removed from the massive 1916 built dock. Beyond that above the tree tops can be seen Agate Bay and the cold blue water 'of the big lake they call Gitche Gumee.'
This is a region that should need no introduction to even the most casual fan as the Duluth, Missabe and Iron Range Railway is in a word legendary. I won't bore you with pages of history as I couldn't do the road or region justice anyway. It simply needs to be experienced for oneself. But I will direct you to two resources. Absolutely check out the fabulous historical information here: www.missabe.com/

Por que sempre encontramos algo bacana nas fotos antigas..
We always find good old stuff in the old files..
2h and 40m of the period of rotation of the planet Jupiter. GIF composed of 128 animated frames at a rate of 12fps. There is a gap in the animation. That's when I pointed the telescope at the planet Mars. But the seeing for Mars was not good and did not result in any images. Then I turned the telescope back on the planet Jupiter. Without much compromise with the final quality of the frames. The black "spot" is the transit of the Europa satellite's shadow.

NGC 6726 compilation of 4 x sessions totalling just over 2 hours of data. QHY 183C Pro and SW Quattro 250p on a NEQ6 Mount. Stacked in APP and stretched in PI and messed with in PS. The star forming region around NGC 6726 in the southern constellation of Corona Australis (Southern Crown) about 400 – 500 light years distant is a complex association of dust, beautiful blue reflection nebula.NGC 6726/6727 and IC 4812 are blue reflection nebulae, where bright stars are embedded in a large cloud of dust which reflects the blue light of the stars.
