You have to scroll laterally, use the arrow on bottom or drag the scroll bar

Corpus Christi, TX, near salt water, zone 9b/10a! Except when it isn't and everything gets nuked.

Took me a couple of minutes to figure out to use the arrow key to scroll. Not sure how to do it on a phone.

Nice shot! What kind of telescope was that with? I've got a mead scg 8". I got a few shots of Saturn, Jupiter and andromeda that came out pretty good but not as good as this. Are you stacking?

I've been to your page before too when I was really into astrophotography. Great stuff!

The scope is a Celestron 14 inch diameter. Yes this is a composite of about 2000 averaged (stacked) images of about .02 seconds each.

The scope looks something like this. Mine did not come with the accessory shown.

For what it's worth, I took a cool pic of the moon and Venus above, at least I think it was Venus.

It's nice to be here on Earth where I can breathe! I only made it as far as Mars.

Sort makes it seem like a real freak accident in the movie Gravity that George Clooney and Sandra Bullock would find their spaceship destroyed by flying debris in all that empty space.

I read the film was supposed to be extremely realistic as far as physics, etc., so I looked it up, and apparently the debris storm is a very real possibility according to the Kessler syndrome. But I don't believe you, Paul. :mrlooney:
