The crew of #Artemis II proposed to name a crater Carroll, after Commander Reid Wiseman’s late wife. He will be able to see it from Earth at favorable #libration.
I indicated the position on one of my #lunar pics.

#color on the #Moon. Original image made by #artemisII crew with Nikon D5 and 80-400 lens, enhanced in PS by me (sharpness, colors, contrast). Crater on terminator is #Vavilov, left of #Hertzsprung basin. #space #astronomy #geology #astrophotography
Such colors are also visible on the nearside.

Latest #ArtemisII #lunar image gently reprocessed. They made it with #Nikon #Z9 and 400mm lens. Striking: I can detect no atmospheric dispersion at the lunar limb in the colors, logical ;).

Perspective... the #moon by #artemisII crew member on April 3, compared to one of my images of the full moon. They see things we never get to see... My full moon image downsized to match the size of the Artemis one.

Even the starship Enterprise is always floating North up through space in the series :)

#comet #Hyakutake 30th anniversary. It was an incredible sight, a comet overhead with a naked eye visible tail of over 50 degrees long in a dark sky. Huge, greenish and bright. I took this slide film picture with Nikon FM2 in the Morvan region in Southern France.

Yes, it all depends on the barlow. Mine is a very low profile barlow, directly screwed into the camera.

I never checked in detail, but I think it's really very close to f/20. Thanks!

What can be done with a cheap mini smart #telescope like the #Dwarf Mini from #Dwarflab.
This is M35 and NGC2158 in Gemini. One hour exposure from #Bortle 7 light pollution. Processed in #AstroPixelProcessor and PS.
