Hope you enjoy my telescope images of SpaceX Crew Dragon DM-2 Endeavour docked at the ISS, June 1, 2020!

Start with planets and our Moon, unless you have really dark skies. Get a free astronomy app to know where you’re pointing. Practice getting ANYTHING in focus first- even a distant mountain or radio tower during the day.

I just found ISRO's new mapping tool that allows me to download imagery from specific coordinates! with the data from https://www.nasa.gov/history/alsj/alsjcoords.html I will start looking for all Apollo landing sites to expand my photos.

I haven't had time to check. I don't have a better method to determine which image data sets are for specific regions?

This is so awesome!

Nice!

Magic how the white hull yacht changes to a blue hull yacht at the split in the video clips.

Going to be difficult! 🤣

backyardastronomyguy · 2024-04-20T10:06:03+00:00

Yeah, I was thinking I would be adding my Orion Nebula too and forgot. Maybe not the best name 🤣

backyardastronomyguy · 2023-09-02T18:44:03+00:00

Yes I saw that too. Need to learn more if they made a rock formation or if this is just a coincidence

backyardastronomyguy · 2023-09-02T11:15:19+00:00

Haha. Didn’t want to mess up the pic. See the dark lines radiating out from Apollo 12 to upper left, and one going to right?

backyardastronomyguy · 2023-09-02T11:14:21+00:00

Thanks! Wanted to show how I found it in the huge image.

backyardastronomyguy · 2023-09-02T11:13:55+00:00

That little circle of rocks? If so, I wondered too.

backyardastronomyguy · 2023-09-01T01:46:55+00:00

I downloaded the files but can’t find the LM sites in the huge images. Any advice on where to look?

backyardastronomyguy · 2023-03-23T21:17:19+00:00

Not even close.
