Saturn 1 week after opposition. Best 1000 frames of a 2000 frame clip. Captured using a QHY IMG132E and Sky-Watcher Explorer 190MN Pro. Processed using Autostakkert 2 and Registax 6

Solar scan using 72ED apo with Sol'Ex SHG and QHY5III 178M.

16x sidereal speed on EQ5 mount to force the scan, this image is a stack of three of six scans using Autostakkert 4,processing carried out in Astrosurface.

Altair Astro Starwave 102ED-R (2017), Altair Hypercam IMX178C, Altair 0.6X Reducer, UHC Filter, Altair IR Filter, EQ3-2, Best 35% of 223 Frames. Processed in AutoStakkert. Finished in Lightroom.

My first ever attempt at imaging the sun through a telescope. Just used some Baader Solar filter material on a plywood off axis mask (4.75 " in diameter) on my C14. 18th June 2025, 12:52 UT, sunspot groups 4114 & 4115 taken with the ASI224MC at F11, the best 25% frames from 3,885 captured were stacked. Equipment used Celestron C14 edge HD and CGEPRO mount. Processed using Autostakkert V4 and Registax V6.

Truly multispectral!

 

Here is a 12V fluorescent light seen in thermal infrared, visible and X-Ray. (In the X-Ray shot the light wasn't operating, hence the lack of crocodile clips connecting it to a power supply).

 

The thermal image was made using my Therm-App thermal imager with 13mm f/1 lens and ThermApp Plus software, the visible with a Nikon D700 with 28-300mm f/3.5-5.6 and the X-Ray image with my Scanmax 20 X-Ray mail scanner. Images were post-processed using AutoStakkert! and Paint Shop Pro.

 

The thermal range is 14-7µm, visible is about 700-400nm and the X-Ray image is at about 20pm (50-70keV - best guess). That's a very wide spectral range in anyone's money.

 

Comments are warmly invited.

A couple of weeks ago I doubted I could even find planet Uranus with the Skymax 127 telescope, in a light polluted (Bortle 6) area of Belfast, let alone get it to appear on a planetary camera (ASI-178MC) but there it was last night!

Uranus currently 2.8 BILLION km from Earth!

Captured with a Nikon D5500 and a 10-inch Meade LX200 'Classic' f/6.3 wide-field telescope.

Taken with a Skywatcher ED80 Refractor and a Canon 500D DSLR. A Baader Astrosolar Filter fitted to telescope. Scope at F7.5 ISO200 1600th sec exposure.Focal length is 600mm ( not allowing for sensor crop value ) Best 25 of 55 images stacked with Autostakkert after processing jpg's in PIPP which centres and crops each image and outputs in this case to tiffs ready for stacking. Using jpg's as camera takes these much quicker than raws, and the resultant image doesn't seem any different from raw files. Much faster to process as a result and more chance of getting sharper images due to seeing conditions as can take many more jpg than raws quickly.

Jupiter, the largest planet in the Solar System, 1 day before its 2022 opposition. I have only practiced collimation a handful of times with the C6, but it seems like I'm getting the hang of it. I was blown away when I made a rough "preview" edit of my first Jupiter image with this setup, and the final result was even more shocking. I could have never dreamed of getting an image this sharp when I started this hobby 4 years ago!
