Short test exposure using the ASI071MC-Pro on the Sky Watcher, this is the Owl Cluster in Cassiopeia, also known as NGC 457. The smaller open cluster in the upper right is NGC 436. The Owl Cluster is about 7,900 light-years away.
Tech Specs: Sky-Watcher Esprit 120mm ED Triplet APO Refractor, Celestron CGEM-DX mount (pier mounted), ZWO ASI071MC-Pro, 6 x 60 second exposures, guided using a ZWO ASI290MC and Orion 60mm guide scope. Captured using SharpCap v3.2 live stacking and saved in FITS format for processing. Image date: November 24, 2019. Location: The Dark Side Observatory, Weatherly, PA, USA.
Look at me! on a beacon, searching the galaxy with my super bright headtorch!

Milwaukee Art Museum
The interior of the museum is as shockingly beautiful as the exterior. The light coming through the generous allocation of glass windows illuminates the inner space in a very pleasant way and brings you right into the artistic high you don't want to wake up from...

Ok, my clean room is a bit bigger and has walls, and Mission Control is bigger too.
But for the rest this is pretty much what set 60229 was all about; constructing a big rocket with space plane, and transporting it for launch. It looks good and I enjoy setting stuff like this up.
I think the spaceplane is a nice nod to the Dream Chaser that is still under construction.
These are orthographic projections from the accompanying digital build. (I’ll post the digital design file when I find space.)

The Mori clan prefer to hide under the forest’s trees. they are rarely seen, as they protect their territory fiercely, and they have mastered the art of killing at distance. The Greenleaf is also specialized in long range attacks. It can launch guided missiles and it’s powerful laser cannon allow it to stay away from the battlefields. It is also quite fast and can evade is an enemy come too close.
The starship hangars of Classic Space were massive. I mean, you may think it's a long way down the road to the chemist's, but that's just peanuts to space-ship hangars.* The engineers used bicycles, electric buggies and all sorts of other transport to travel about but they wanted faster speeds.
Eventually they modified a small maintenance quadcopter to carry a human pilot. Armoured trousers were a necessary precaution when flying it.
Sadly management decreed that this vehicle was less safe than Colin Furze's belt of spinning knives and banned its use after just a few months.

'3... 2...1!
We have lift off!
We have lift off, shuttle 'Little Grasshopper' has left the platform for its maiden flight....'
***************************************
Building a full launch tower meant I had little use for the launch capability of the crawler from set 60229.
But while playing with all kinds of rocket and spaceship combinations I stumbled into this one.
It's the small spaceship from 60224, launched 'shuttle-style' with a big tank and solid rocket boosters, and the shuttle riding piggy-back.
And If I am going to turn the space station into a Shiptember-worthy spaceship, it's going to need a big fuel tank...
A living area inside of a large farmhouse built in 1870 near LaMoille,IL. This house on the exterior is a beauty,but on the inside full of non-descript spaces. Nearly every room has its own decaying fireplace and large windows.This place, in its day, was a showplace but now it stands with its front door wide open, inviting all in to share in its misery...
Foundation pieced blocks finished at last!

In ogni notte serena della mia vacanza ho sempre alzato gli occhi al cielo... la via lattea, in questa stagione, da 34 gradi di latitudine sud, è veramente spettacolare... il centauro, la carena, la croce del sud... sono formate da stelle luminose, sembrano una manciata di diamanti sul velluto nero.
E guardo la vicina di casa del nostro sole, Alfa del Centauro... a soli 4 anni luce da noi. Eppure, 4 anni luce corrispondono a 40 mila miliardi di km... uno spazio immenso, vuoto, silenzioso, ostile. E le stelle più lontane che si riescono a vedere ad occhio nudo, invece, sono a diverse migliaia di anni luce.
Tutta la via lattea che si vede così maestosa è in realtà una ruota formata da una spirale contenente 100 miliardi di stelle. Il sole fa un giro completo attorno al centro di questa ruota ogni 200 milioni di anni terrestri, trascinando con se la Terra, i pianeti del sistema solare, le comete, gli asteroidi... ma porta con sè anche i pensieri di un meravigliato turista italiano, con il naso all'insù, di notte, davanti al parapetto in una strada desolata nel nord-est del Sudafrica :)

NGC 891 is an edge on spiral galaxy that lies some 30 million light years in the constellation Andromeda. Its appearance is similar to how the Milky Way would look from a distance. Many more distant galaxies are also visible in this image.
Details:
Scope: TMB130SS
Camera: QSI690-wsg8
Guide Camera: Starlight Xpress Ultrastar
Mount: Mach1 GTO
RGB: 42x5min each - super-luminance made from RGB frames
Software: SGP, PHD2, APCC, Pixinsight
10.5 hrs total exposure
My latest photo from the backyard in the stunning Lion Nebula in the constellation Cepheus.
To create this image I collected roughly 8 hours of total exposure time using Ha and OIII filters.

De glycerine druppels liggen op een glasplaat. Ca. 40 cm daaronder liggen uit papier geknipte rode hartjes op een zwart kleed. Deze hartjes worden, door scherp te stellen op de glycerinedruppels, duidelijk en omgekeerd zichtbaar in de druppels.
That was my third entry for the contest "Out of this World Space Builds" on Lego Idea.
Story:
“We meet again our two fellow classic space figs, Eddy and Cindy with their new outfits. They are now going on a new adventure, exploring space!
Unfortunately, this spaceship doesn't have a rover to explore the surface of new discovered planets but have a little useful speeder bike attached to the rear. Well, Cindy have difficulties to handle the speeder and is kind of scared by its power ... (both minifigs have a double side face, one normal and the other scared ... the speeder bike is definitively difficult to handle!!)”
In fact, it was designed to be with this diorama but it was a large spaceship so I decided to substitute another (smaller) and make this one on his own.
