I stacked 8 integration runs in Deep Sky Stacker, the longest being 74 minutes. I used the Exposure and Saturation features in GIMP to finish.<br/><a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/philippughastronomer/54856812668/in/dateposted-public/">https://www.flickr.com/photos/philippughastronomer/54856812668/in/dateposted-public/</a><br/> <img src="https://media.universeodon.com/media_attachments/files/115/581/281/209/499/842/original/b0c2d1a0d5747a45.jpg"> <br/> 2025-11-20T09:19:55Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqsgjwxscycs42k0ws28j0qzppq8vs4c74j8hlfvep689a6a8306kqqzyqu9jkc6tq4p45820lz8h2g0l2za676n4umyks7ets04kqn6m3pfk28jztp My #astronomy blog is nearly up-to-date. I just have a moon and double star session on 13th left to process which I will do tonight or early in the week.

I guess that the Hamas attack on Israel was horrific and I understand Israel&#39;s desire for revenge. However, starving and killing the non-involved in Gaza is just not acceptable. In an ideal world, Israel and Palestine would both have the right to exist. 2025-07-24T18:55:56Z
