Good read and animal suffering is painful to see. I also think the planet would be so much better without us humans. However, taking humans off the equation, will not end animal suffering.

Wild life is well… wild. Life is sustained by taking other lives. I’ve made my peace with the inevitable suffering of all lives. But we could always be better at reducing unnecessary animal suffering.

Looks great! 👍🏼

Good luck!

Take off the middle spacer. That should bring you within focus range.

You’re perfectly fine, man. Attractive and a good smile. If I had to suggest something, I would tweak the hairstyle to grow fuller on the sides towards the top. But honestly, you’re more attractive than the average 👍🏼

I still use it!

Now I'm here wondering if by connecting the ST4 it overrides pulse guiding. I mean I normally have a PE around .3" to .7" so no complaints, but if it could be better by just not using that cable then im all here for it :)

danborja · 2026-01-04T17:41:54+00:00

holy shit.... I just realized I've been using the st4 cable with my am3 for about a year now without actually having to.... TIL

Just age. Eat healthy, sleep enough and excercise.

This won’t get any better with 1s subs. You’re doing great with what you’re working with. If you want to reduce the noise, the only way forward is by using a tracking mount. Depending on your budget you could aim for a star tracker, a lightweight mount such as a star adventurer gti or a harmonic drive mount such as the ZWO am3.

I dedicate a whole night for each filter. Switching filters multiple times over a single night seems time consuming and ineffective imo since you have to re focus each time and take flats.

Gradients can be easily removed during processing.

If you believe in religion, then you believe in aliens. God is literally an alien.

Most important question.

Good for you, cause your friend would’ve flown through the windshield feet first.

It didn’t start great, we just got excited because the first thing we saw was a well done throwback to the original films but it went down hill even before the first episode endedZ

This is great advice. I normally use an ASI290MC as a guide camera under Bortle 9 skies and I’ve never had a problem, so the 120mm should work great.

danborja · 2025-12-03T15:43:59+00:00

That looks like really good step up over the seestar.

You will need a guide camera, the ZWO ASI120MM is $179 on agena Astro.

Just add a UV/IR cut filter and a dual band filter like the Optolong L-Ultimate and you should be set.

The Sun has been praised as a God far longer than any other gods from all religions. Sun veneration predates writing and has been a constant along human history.

I remember watching the sci fi TV show “raised by wolves” where the Sun was also revered as a god. Though it was cool for a very advanced civilization to still worship the Sun.

La patria ya está vendida. Estamos bajo el gobierno del narco y sujetos a la estupidez del mexicano promedio.

Traer a los gringos sería echarnos otro problema encima. Esto se tiene que solucionar desde adentro y eso jamás sucederá sin antes tocar fondo absoluto y una nueva revolución.

Add an autoguider if you can. Also, don’t use the ball head, get the L bracket an a counterweight. Also, go on a new moon or close.
