"Passers-by" After hours of planning and a good stroke of cosmic luck, I present the International Space Station ⁠#ISS making a flyby of #Jupiter! You can even see the Galilean moons. Lost for words with how this turned out - I hope you like it just as much as I do! 1/4

Hadley Rille & the Apollo 15 landing site imaged from home last weekend. The south cluster and north complex are both visible, alongside various other craters. 24" Dob, 3x extender, Uranus-M camera, IR642 filter.

Some snaps of the Moon last night with the 24-inch scope :)

Jupiter this morning in near-infrared. My first proper session in a month! 24" Dob and IR720 longpass filter. Average seeing.

Saturn on October 11th. Great seeing at just 30 degrees elevation. Sadly no moons for close company, but I'm happy to have detected the Cassini division at such a shallow ring angle. 24" Dob and Uranus-C camera at 10.6m f/17.6. Colour/VIS data only.

A HDR image Uranus from Sunday morning. Great conditions with the rings on full display. IR720 longpass filter for rings, 610nm longpass & colour data for the planet itself. Captured with 24" (600mm) Dobsonian & P1 Uranus-M camera.

Neptune & Triton last night under great seeing. A bright cloud is seen near the equatorial region. 35 mins of data with the 24" Dob and Uranus-M camera. 610nm+ longpass IR luminance.

Jupiter this morning. Reasonably good conditions with the 24" Dobsonian and Uranus-C camera.

Jupiter yesterday morning from home. Great conditions with 3 Galilean moons nearby - Ganymede's prominent surface features are visible, with the dark spot of Isum Patera also sighted on Io. 24" Dob & Uranus-C camera. Last image shown here is the simulated view via WinJUPOS.

Jupiter in false colour this morning. CH4-IR850-UV mapped to RGB. 24" Dob, Uranus-M.

Jupiter on September 23rd. Moments of ok seeing for this session. Oval BA is visible just left of centre, with the southern equatorial disturbance (SED) rotating out of view at right. 24" Dob & Uranus-C.

And both the raw stacked image, and one with additional sharpening that was used in the creation of the final HDR image. Miranda, Ariel and Umbriel are seen clearly alongside the planet and rings.

48m timelapse showing both the motion of Uranus itself against background stars (moving right to left), and the clockwise orbital motion of the moons.

Uranus, rings and moons captured this morning under good, but variable conditions. Note the rings exhibit a dimming on the bottom side of the image - this is actually a real feature and is seen in Hubble imagery. See thread for a timelapse of Uranus' motion and the 'raw' images.

Saturn at it's best Moments of excellent conditions last night allowed for my best image of the planet to date. (L-R) Dione, Rhea, Mimas (hard to see) and Tethys are seen alongside the rings with Tethys casting its shadow onto the cloud tops. Stoked with how this came out!

Jupiter is returning to the morning skies once more - here's my first image of the 2025/6 season. Great conditions low in the sky, though sadly a relatively uneventful face to the planet with no GRS or moons nearby.

And here's the monochrome IR image.

Venus this morning under great conditions - my best image to date despite the planet being fairly distant from Earth at the moment. Still hard to believe what's possible from the backyard! 24" Dobsonian and Uranus-M camera. False colour IR(sG)UV mapped to RGB.

Saturn in methane band (889nm) on the 17th August. Dione alongside.

This morning's view of Saturn, neatly flanked by the moons of Tethys, Dione and Rhea. Sensational views at the eyepiece also!

The Moon was looking too good to pass up this morning - here's a close up view of Pythagoras Crater captured at some ~8 meters focal length.
