Fill the Void and Open the VauLT

A lesser known DSO between great Open Clusters off the shoulder of Ophiuchus. The Emerald Nebula is one of the few Planetary Nebulae that reveals a green hue immediately to the eye rather than just a long exposure. More fast the focal length the more color immediately received.

A night with NEA Ganymed sketching at the eyepiece of my 12.5 f/3.6 Newtonian while digital imaging with 10” SCT f/10. Two of the same eyepieces one in each telescope.

Star Hopping to the 7th largest main belt asteroid (511) Davida. The nights are long and the asteroids are high in altitude but the winter conditions limit the observations. I’m able to stay ahead of the dew point by moving quickly. Setting up three times over a two hour period and snapping a shot with my iPhone through the eyepiece. My 8” dobs is a quick and easy setup, it’s f/6 is fast enough for a 3” second exposure iPhone 15 snapshot. Handheld @ Eyepiece.

Galaxies and Comets would have you waiting for the moon to pass. Not Asteroids. Any time is the right time(while the ecliptic is high).
