How we found Morehouse’s Black Ring: A dark nebula hiding in plain sight

This shot of the Pleiades (M45) — which comprises two hours of integration time taken with a 10-inch scope, Atik 16200 CCD, and Starizona’s Nexus 0.75x Newtonian Focal Reducer/Coma Corrector — displays sharp details out to the edges.

How long will Saturn’s rings last before they disappear? 

At a distance of 12 million light-years and around 105,000 light-years across, NGC 253’s angular length is close to the diameter of the Full Moon.
Deep-Sky Objects

Observe the galaxies of Sculptor

The blue reflection nebula M78 lies about 1,600 light-years away in Orion. It is a cloud of interstellar gas and dust that owes its luminosity to embedded, bright, blue, early B-type stars ­— making it the brightest diffuse reflection nebula in the Orion B molecular cloud complex.

What gives stars their colors?

The five members of the animal kingdom we observed during the April 2024 solar eclipse from Bee Cave, Texas, are shown clockwise from top left: northern cardinal, American robin, mosquito, cloudless sulphur butterfly, and a Mexican free-tailed bat. Images showing totality and the mosquito were taken on eclipse day.

Why can we still see the Moon’s disk during a total lunar eclipse?

Autoguiding can take your astrophotography to the next level, as exemplified in this 6.5-hour exposure of the Trifid Nebula (M20). Here, the nebulosity stands out in all its glory among perfect, round stars. The author took this shot with a 10-inch f/3.8 Newtonian and Atik 16200 CCD.
