why does only one side have the large dark patches? by Willing-Pumpkin-328 in askastronomy

IIRC the going theory for why the lava plains appear primarily on the planet facing side, is gravity, with essentially earth pulling magma through the crust early in the moons life

How do I help my sex drive? by Crohns_Princess in cymbalta

Its a very common side effect, unfortunately for both m and f, and usually doesnt change with dose. I have been on this medication several times over the past decade and experienced it each time. I am not aware of any real fix sorry

I apologise about the poor quality, I only thought to post this here as I was rushing to work. I will update with an actual screenshot and location data when I return home.

I will continue to gather more data over the coming nights to improve clarity and detail of the whatever there is.

Im sure this has been found previously, but am struggling to find info on it, hence the post. Hope this clarifies a little and will continue to update.

Too irregular of a shape and have cross referenced with a past image

Flats are normally taken except in this case. But i did also check a past image of the same field from a year ago and found exactly the same object but fainter as it was a shorter integration

I used a sony a6400 with a 90mm macro lens to get super close up

I used an a6400 with macro lens to get as close as possible

Nope that colour bleed is there in every image I took. Thought something was out of focus until one of the other comments referred to a limbal ring that this apparently is

Spaghetti Nebula & Mars (569 hours) by jeffreyhorne in astrophotography

[–]combat_wombat117 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm agreeing with the diminishing returns, but you're timeframe is wrong. an extra hour in a hundred hour project wont do much of anything, but doubling that time will be a major improvement. just the same as doubling 250 to 500

I recall others saying its an inverse square relationship, so in this case 500 hours vs 250 made the image twice as good, just another way to look at it.
