"These millennia-old sky #traditions aren't just random stories meant to entertain around the fire; they are often cornerstones of entire #cultures and #societies. We all share the same sky, and anyone from the same culture can identify the same constellations night after night. The loss of that access and #heritage is a loss of part of our #humanity."

18/09/2023 - Evening walk after tea. Just to stretch the legs and maybe see some stars. Turned out pretty wow as the night sky was in a proper dancing mood.

Quite an old photo (summer 2016) but still my favourite photo I've ever taken of the Milky Way. Taken at my parents' house in Bad Oeynhausen, Germany. I haven't been able to take a photo as good as this one since!

This is not a stacked photo but a rather simple long exposure taken with my old Canon 1100D and its kit lens.

I went back and tried to edit down my night sky capture of the evening of August 13-14, but with just the frames that contain meteors. I found 149 meteors that I captured through the night, and here they are in one image. It's still raw, but I'm excited at what it's looking like with most of the other distractions removed (planes & satellites). #MeteorShower #meteor #perseids #nightsky #astrophotography #StarTrails

Some shots of the Galactic Center I took up here in the gorgeous Berkshire Mountains. It was super fun putting all my new gadgets to work to get these shots! I’m super blown away at how much light this Sony 20mm f/1.8 G lens let’s in. These were shot at f/1.8, ISO 640, for 25 seconds. #photography #astrophotography #milkyway #galacticcenter #nightphotography #nightsky #stars #space #longexposure #night #galaxy #nature #cosmos #milkywaychasers #sonycamera #sonya7rv #sony20mmf18 #adobelightroom

What saddens me with #starlink and whatever comes next (#spacex alone plans a significant expansion) is that simple naked eye gazing at the #nightsky is forever chanced for all who come after us.

My parents grew up when potentially visible manmade objects were newsworthy (Apollo).

I grew up occasionally seeing a satellite (Iridium flares).

My kid will never look up and not see multiple satellites moving at any given time (even in light polluted areas). I see three right now.

We had wonderfully clear skies at #FreshwaterBay on the #IsleofWight last night, so my husband headed out to photograph the #MilkyWay

The Island is a great place for #nightsky photography as we have little light pollution over the majority of the land and seacape.

A clear sky, full of stars over a coastline and a couple of large rock stacks. The sea is perfectly still, lights froma distant town in the far distance. Some colour left in the sky from the day time. A peaceful picture.

Just saw a train of satellites, moving West to East over the SF Bay Area, but there's nothing on the Starlink satellite trackers. Anyone got a guess? There were maybe 30 in the train, evenly spaced.

08/09/2023 - After sunset visit to Carn na Drochaide. Evening walk up the hill to see some stars. Warm and clear sky. Reached the top by sunset, we sat down for a rest and tea and waited for the dark. A good place to be. Nice dark walk back along the west side. Twilight turned to night. We stopped again and had a brew and played a bit with the cameras. The Milky Way was as good as I've seen. Last sunset walk of the week, a really good one to finish on.

The streak in the night sky is a plane, the camera shutter is open for up to 30 seconds, to see this

🎵Blue moon, you saw me standing alone...🎶
Last night's residual clouds, combined with the low angle, gave the moon a haze. It almost looks like a water covered planet.

#3GoodThings #ReasonsToBeCheerful

1. I see stars in the sky.

2. I absolutely love sitting on the front porch with my dog. She's super chill and just sits there with me with no inclination to leave the porch unless I tell her it's okay, even if I leave the porch.

3. Knowing the 10 hour version of Marconi Union's 'Weightless' will get me to sleep again tonight despite my overactive mind.

Oooh, look what I made with some #Python and the #4K sky cam stream recorded to my Synology NAS! The entire night of Aug 2, 2023 compressed to about a minute where you can see the movement of the stars, planes, satellites and I think one firefly!

Saw the planet Mercury in the sunset-lit horizon for the first time in my life.

It’s the faint speck in the middle of this photo. His sister Venus is bright in the upper left hand corner.

Mercury became brighter as the sky darkened but this is only a photo with my simple cell phone and it will have to suffice.

Speechless.

A faint light in the middle of the photo is the planet Mercury, barely visible in the still-sunset-lit sky. Venus is bright in the upper left hand corner.

No planets can be easily seen now in tonight's southeast Michigan sky.

But Spica and Denebola stars can be seen with the naked eye in the southwest and western sky respectively.

After debating with myself for 30 mins about whether to venture out into the cold to answer the call of nature I eventually left my tent. The sky was amazing. I guess then was not the time to start learning astrophotography but I put the camera on a tripod and a 20 second timer and pressed the shutter. I took a lot of blurry ones but this is the best I managed. Might have to learn how to do it properly 🤣
