8:50 Here I meant triangles and triangular stars Felix😊

You have a pinched mirror. You have to losen the mrirror clips.

@@davidandersen208 I totally agree. That is a mistake I've made myself. The backyard universe instructions say you should be able to slip a piece of paper between the mirror and the clips. Excellent observation David! jD

I liked your Video. It amazes me that your focus for the nights' imaging session was the quasar. That is so cool. Most other imagers would process that little smudge out of the image. You understood what it was, and made a video about it. I think you have re-discovered some much needed enthusiasm for our hobby. I've always said.. "its not what you see, its what you are looking at" that makes our passion so interesting. Great stuff. Joe D

You are totally right. Thank you for your comment.Your support means a lot to me😊🙏

Nice work! I've also known triangular stars to be caused by pinched optics. If when attaching your mirror mask, you got one of the screws just a tad too tight, that could also be the cause. Make sure you can slip a piece of paper between the mirror and the mask or mirror clips.

Thank you for your comment. I will definitely test this😊👍

A great video there Felix, and a fascinating target to capture. I noticed when you zoomed into the target there looked like there was a bit of walking noise. Were you dithering during your session? All the very best.

Thanks.I really hope that you will become an astrophotographer one day😊👍

For visual folks with a medium scope, it will likely be another quasar, not quite so far away, but still a VERY far 2 billion light years! 3C 273 at magnitude 12.9

Thank you for your comment.The comment will be interesting and helpful for many people. Do you observe with your telescope or do you take images?

@OMaMaRMY Ай бұрын

@@FelixsAstrophotography Thanks for the reply! I mostly observe with my 10" dob, but do love and appreciate the work of astrophotographers and the beautiful images they produce!

@freeman10000 Ай бұрын

I have observed 3C273 with an 8" dob. It just blows me away that you can see something so mind boggingly distant with a modest instrument from a suburban back yard.

That’s cool!! Good stuff. I don’t have a set up that nice and I haven’t been doing it for very long. But just catching the galaxy I’m looking for makes me feel good so I’m proud for you bro.

big scope for a little mount

@FelixsAstrophotography Ай бұрын

The heq5 pro has enough capacity for this telescope. However, a much larger telescope should not be used on this mount

I have a question. At the 10:10 mark what is the blue dot with the blue aurora around it? Will you zoom your telescope in on that?

@FelixsAstrophotography 21 күн бұрын

I'm not entirely sure what you mean exactly. However, if you mean the Blue Nebula then it is the planetary nebula m97. Is that what you meant?

@DBonezz 20 күн бұрын

@FelixsAstrophotography what's in the middle of it. Sorry my question was confusing. But I see the galaxy. I see the blue dot. My question is what's in the middle of the blue ring? Can your telescope see what's in the middle? Is it a star? A solar system? I was just curious. I love watching your videos..

@FelixsAstrophotography 20 күн бұрын

If you zoom in a little more you can see some stars in the nebula.

@Alan-vk6bk Ай бұрын

I think youll find its pinched optics. I think you need to adjust the mirror clips. I have the same scope and had the same issue.

There is nothing there. You probably need to circle object. Why are stars so triangular? What is SNR of image? It looks low. M86 and M108 are pale. You need to quadruple exposure time.

@Tp_astro Ай бұрын

Ton 618 is probably,which is 18 billion light years away.

Thank you for your idea🙏. I definitely want to go to another place in the near future and do astrophotography there
