This image was captured back towards the beginning of January during a very cold night/morning on a hill in Wiltshire.
The image depicts the constellation of Orion above an ancient burial mound.
I just went down to the promenade for a breath of fresh air before it got dark, not specifically to see the sun set as it had already sunk below the usual evening bank of cloud. Then suddenly the clouds started to part and this wonderful beam of light shone upwards towards the still blue sky. A lovely end to the day.

Before I wrapped up my night out at this location, I had to capture the Milky Way. It was 1:30 AM and the moon had set. The Milky Way was easily visible because of this. This photo is a panorama that is comprised of 14 photos. I wanted to show as much of the Milky Way spanning the sky as I could.

An awesome morning, when the star Regulus, the planets Venus, Mars and Jupiter join the crescent Moon to greet early earthling risers.

The view of the southern sky just after sunset from Hat Head, NSW. I believe that is the Large Magellanic Cloud on the right closer to the top, but please correct me if I am wrong.
Lego Spaceship MOC: The Celestial Empress is a large nuclear pulse propelled spaceship designed specifically to take a contained colony to Alpha Centauri. The Nuclear warhead propulsion system is based on the Project Orion concept and will take this half million Earth ton vessel to .99.99 of the speed of light. It take a little over a year to reach maxim velocity, it will then cruise for a further 4.5 years before flipping over and using the same propulsion to decelerate for another year before reaching its destination of Alpha Centauri.
There is a transit system from the bow module to the cargo modules

I am just a tiny spec on this earth at the given slice of time. The earth in turn is such a tiny speck in the Milky Way. To top it off the Milky Way is just one of billions of galaxies in the universe. When u get to witness the celestial grandeur like these - it brings in an amazing feeling of being extraordinarily special and at the same time wonderfully insignificant.
This shot is from the last week drive to the Ottawa National Forest at Michigan to capture the Perseids. Though this does not have any Meteor, i really like this shot for the minimalistic feel and the contemplation that was happening within when I captured the same :) What do u think, How do u like it ?

P.S: Special Thanks to MoodyGoat for getting me to this lovely location :)
This densely populated group of stars is the globular cluster known as NGC 1841, which is found within the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC), a satellite galaxy to the Milky Way galaxy that lies about 162 000 light-years away. Satellite galaxies are galaxies that are bound by gravity in orbits around a more massive host galaxy. We typically think of our galaxy’s nearest galactic companion as being the Andromeda Galaxy, but it would be more accurate to say that Andromeda is the nearest galaxy that is not in orbit around the Milky Way galaxy. In fact, our galaxy is orbited by tens of known satellite galaxies that are far closer than Andromeda, the largest and brightest of which is the LMC, which is easily visible to the naked eye from the southern hemisphere (although this is decreasingly the case thanks to light pollution).
The LMC is home to many globular clusters. These celestial bodies fall somewhere between open clusters — which are much less dense and tightly bound — and small, compact galaxies. Increasingly sophisticated observations have revealed the stellar populations and other characteristics of globular clusters to be varied and complex, and it is not well understood how these tightly-packed clusters form. However, there are certain consistencies across all globular clusters: they are very stable and so are capable of lasting a long time, and can therefore be very old. This means that globular clusters often contain large numbers of very old stars, which make them something akin to celestial ‘fossils’. Just as fossils provide insight into the early development of life on Earth, globular clusters such as NGC 1841 can provide insights into very early star formation in galaxies.

- www.kevin-palmer.com - For the past couple months Comet C/2013 US10 (Catalina) has been visible from Northern Hemisphere skies. As the comet rounded the sun it became brighter at about 6th magnitude. Because of bad weather, this was only my 2nd time observing and photographing this comet. Subzero temperatures pretty much guaranteed a clear sky. Moonlight will soon drown out the comet as it gets farther away from earth, never to return again. I caught a lucky satellite moving through the frame. The two bright stars Mizar and Alioth are the handle stars of the Big Dipper. This is a single 2.5 minute exposure with a Takumar 135mm lens at f/4, ISO 1250. An iOptron Skytracker was used to track the stars.

Mark and Megan have been working a lot on NASA's Celestial immunity experiment, including weekends. This is one of the reasons I like making timelapses, it compresses hours of work into a short video (also once the camera is set up we can let it be it and do said work). Together with solid support from mission control and scientists on ground, Mark and Megan have been working in the Life Sciences Glovebox in the Japanese Kibo laboratory to run this experiment. They are taking immune cells from elderly people and adults and seeing how they react to being on the International Space Station. This could offer clues to the whole ageing process in general and continues on ground-breaking research in space that is helping us understand the human body in detail. Like much human research in space it capitalises on the fact that cells seem to age faster offering a handy way for researchers to observe changes but sped up. Mark is doing the experiment in the Glovebox so the cells are contained, we do many biological or chemical experiments in gloveboxes for extra safety. youtu.be/vNS_sEfgvdI
Mark et Megan travaillent beaucoup sur l’expérience Celestial immunity dernièrement, y compris les weekends. Les timelapses ont l’avantage de compresser le temps et de montrer l’essentiel des activités en une courte vidéo (et puis je peux installer la caméra et la laisser tourner pendant que je vaque à mes occupations 🆗). Avec le soutien du centre d’opérations et des scientifiques, Megan et Mark utilisent la Life Sciences Glovebox (littéralement « la boîte à gants pour les sciences du vivant) qui se trouve dans le laboratoire :flag japon: Kibo. Grâce à cette boîte, les échantillons restent bien confiner, sans risque d’être abimés. Ils étudient des cellules immunitaires de personnes âgées et d’adultes pour voir comment elles réagissent dans la Station spatiale. L’objectif ? Étudier le vieillissement et plus généralement améliorer la compréhension du corps humain. Comme la plupart des études sur la physiologie humaine, on se sert du fait que les cellules vieillissent plus vite dans l’espace. C’est pratique, on peut observer les changements plus rapidement, comme en accélérer… un peu comme un timelapse dans la vie réelle :) youtu.be/vNS_sEfgvdI
