Comet and Anti-Tail

Comet A3 Tsuchinshan-ATLAS as seen through my trusty old TeleVue60is f6 refractor. This is 71 5sec subframes taken at iso6400 on an Olympus EM1 mk3 Astro and processed in the open source Siril software. You can see the anti-tail fanning and extending out in front of the nucleus. A little noisy in the image, but I'm happy with it for now.

Titanosaurs and Tsuchinshan-ATLAS A3

Comet A3 Tsuchinshan-ATLAS and the Titanosaurs come together in the Jump-Up International Dark-Sky Sanctuary of Winton.

Comet A3 Tsuchinshan-ATLAS

A shot of Comet 2023 A3 Tsuchinshan-ATLAS on our first cloud free horizon since moving to the evening sky. It is not as bright as it was in the morning sky, but hopefully will brighten when the moon is below the horizon in a week from now.

Aurora Australis Glimpse

A brief glimpse of a tinge of colour from the Aurora Australis at Gondwana Stars Observatory. Plus if you look closely you will spot an owl dropping by to join in the observing session.

Storm Over The Jump-Up

A storm rolls in to Winton as seen from The Jump-Up Dark-Sky Sanctuary while we pack up after a guest BBQ dinner.
