🌌 Behold the stunning M106 galaxy! This deep-space beauty was captured from Starfront Observatories from my remote telescope, revealing its mesmerizing details. But here’s the reality check—my attempt to image it from my backyard was a struggle against heavy light pollution! 🌃💡✨I combined the BTS from my backyard with the image I captured from Storefront. The capture I got from my backyard was terrible due to light pollution and porch lights from my neighbors. Sometimes, location is everything in astrophotography. The power supply is the @bluetti_official Elite 200V2, an extremely reliable power supply for astrophotographers. The image is available for purchase as a wallpaper download on my website, link in bio #M106 #Astrophotography #DeepSpace #GalaxyPhotography #LightPollution #StarfrontObservatories #BackyardAstro #SpaceArt #RamiAstro #SpringPowerMood #bluetti #elite200v2 #galaxy #astrophotography

Science photographer @babaktafreshi has documented many of the world's observatories. Here a night begins at the 66-meter (210 ft) radio telescope in Parkes, Australia, known as the Dish. Venus, Mercury, and the New Moon are in a rare celestial conjunction in this time-lapse video. Explore more @babaktafreshi.

Galactic Harmony: Bode’s Dance with the Cigar Galaxy I captured this duo from my remote telescope at Storefront Observatories. The total data collected was 24 hours, but due to storms and weather, the span of imaging took about 1 month to be completed. The results were well worth it. The image showcases the mesmerizing beauty of Bode’s Galaxy (M81) and the fiery intensity of the Cigar Galaxy (M82). Locked in a cosmic dance 12 million light-years away, these galactic neighbors are bound by gravity—and now, bound to captivate your space.
