This morning, I captured another image of Comet C/2023 A3 (Tsuchinshan-ATLAS) from the @LCOAstro site in the Atacama Desert, Chile 🇨🇱✨😱. The view was absolutely stunning !!! The comet is clearly visible visually. My gear: Nikon D810a camera with a 135mm lens. Exposure: 20 x 30…
‼️🚨 Wow, what a timely article ! This arXiv gem suggests interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS could be an alien probe - possibly the hostile sort from the “Dark Forest” Fermi twist 🤪 Moreover, recent Gemini telescope observations show that the object apparently has a developing small…
‼️✨ The full Pink Moon rises over the ancient stones of Stonehenge in Wiltshire, England, silhouetted against the evening sky. What a stunning view !!
Last nights 99% Buck Moon rising at Stonehenge 🤩🌕🌙 Photo credit Nick Bull 🙏 #buckmoon #moon #fullmoon #July #summer #landscape #astro #stonehenge
‼️✨ I captured the Southern Cross constellation using my iPhone 16 Pro ! Modern smartphone cameras perform remarkably well in low-light conditions, and astrophotography is the ultimate test of their capabilities 👍 I took this image in Chile’s Atacama Desert, renowned for its…
‼️✨ Check out this stunning image of the Milky Way core I captured last night with my iPhone 16 Pro smartphone 😱 ! The level of detail is absolutely mind-blowing, especially considering it was taken with just a smartphone 📱 I took this image from the Atacama Desert in Chile,…

‼️✨ Stargazing on Rapa Nui (Easter Island) under the Southern Pacific sky is pure magic ! ✨Captured this moment when a strange glow appeared below the hill - thought it was unearthly lights, but just a car passing by (what was it doing out here so late ?). Jupiter rises above…

‼️✨ In the morning twilight, the Atacama Desert is one of the best places on the planet for astronomical observations. Its crystal-clear sky reveals the stunning beauty of delicate atmospheric colors. This is my image of the Moon and Venus rising above the Chilean Andes, near…
‼️✨ “Diamond dust” - tiny ice crystals reflecting sunlight or moonlight, creating halos, arcs, and eerie illusions. This amazing image was captured by Jaroslav Fous in the Czech Republic’s Ore Mountains. Rising Moon through icy fog sparked moon dogs, tangent arcs, a parselenic…
‼️✨ Wow! The Milky Way perfectly framed by a stunning natural rock formation in Japan. A breathtaking capture of the night sky and ocean below 🤩
天の川を自然の額縁に閉じ込めた。
‼️✨ Mysterious glowing streaks in the sky 🤩 Known as STEVEs, these light-purple ribbons resemble auroras but are different. Recent research links them to supersonic hot ion rivers (SAIDs). Some even come with green picket fence structures ! Beautifully captured by Krista…
‼️ Stunning display of noctilucent clouds 🤩👍 Beautiful reflections too !
"Right after sunset, a friend messaged me, sent me a photo, and asked if what he was seeing were noctilucent clouds. It was 10:50 PM," says photographer Tadek Piotrowski. "I replied that 'yes, they were,' grabbed my phone, put on my shoes, and drove out of the city to find a…
‼️✨ Moonlit View Over a Volcano 🌋 I captured the full Moon rising above Licancabur Volcano in the Atacama Desert in Chile at twilight. The sky’s colors were striking 🤩 I carefully planned the camera’s position carefully in advance. A beautiful natural scene !
‼️✨ BREAKING: NASA crew caught this incredible sprite over Mexico & US this morning ! Sprites are TLEs (Transient Luminous Events) - brief, bright flashes above clouds triggered by intense thunderstorm activity 💥 Airglow is visible as beautiful green bow above the Earth. I took…
Listening to the cosmos ✨I took this photograph at the ALMA observatory, located on the Chajnantor Plateau in northern Chile at an elevation of 16,000 feet (5,000 meters). These large antennas are designed to operate at millimeter and submillimeter wavelengths, enabling…
‼️✨ Such a dreamy nightscape from Japan 🇯🇵 ! Pure inspiration 🤩

‼️✨ Here’s a “STEVE” (Strong Thermal Emission Velocity Enhancement) captured by Louis Leroux during the night of October 10/11, 2024, at the foot of the Cap Gris-Nez lighthouse. A phenomenon quite different from a polar aurora !
Voici un "STEVE" (Strong Thermal Emission Velocity Enhancement) capturé lors de la folle nuit du 10/11 Octobre 2024 au pied du phare du Cap Gris-Nez. Un phénomène n'ayant pas grand chose à voir avec une aurore polaire 😉
‼️✨ I captured this stunning green airglow lights up the night sky over the mountains at Saskatchewan River Crossing, Alberta, Canada 🇨🇦 Amazing wavy structure ! The Big Dipper shines brightly above 🌌
‼️🚨 Groundbreaking Discovery: Astronomers Uncover Star’s Double Explosion ! 💥 Visual evidence of a star being detonated twice has been captured for the first time. By studying the ancient debris of supernova SNR 0509-67.5 with ESO’s Very Large Telescope, researchers identified…
