Magique ! De mon côté, j'utilise une monture HEQ5 avec la skywacher 82ed 477mm avec une zwo 2600 MC air mais je n'ai pas réussi à résoudre l'amas d'étoiles en son centre. C'est pourquoi je suis ta chaîne YouTube qui est géniale pour Siril. Merci beaucoup à toi. J'attends ton prochain shooting. Best regards

Very nice. First clear night for me in about a week (unusual for my area) Must be because I just got a CarbonStar 150. Shot 3 targets with grt results last night. HorseHead, whirlpool and Bodes/Cigar. Loving the F 3.8 speed.

Just finished the first shoot of the year of the heart and soul nebulae an hour and a half of frames before they hit the tree tops, using my dslr and 135mm lens. Shall process them tomorrow. Clear skies.

Skies were unexpectedly clear last night when I wasn't home. Maybe that's the trick! When we arrived back at the house later, I just slewed quickly to the Rosette Nebula and acquired just over an hour of data. Love the HyperStar!

The Rosette Nebula is a massive, beautiful cloud of gas and dust in space where new stars are being born. It’s about 5,000 light-years away from Earth in the constellation Monoceros (the Unicorn). The nebula gets its name because it looks like a giant, red-pink cosmic rose in long-exposure images.
At its center, a group of young, bright stars—called the open cluster NGC 2244—has formed from the nebula’s material. These stars give off strong radiation and winds that shape the surrounding gas into a hollow, flower-like structure. The glowing colors come from hydrogen, oxygen, and sulfur gas being energized by the stars.
