Another new gadget. Take photos of the universe from your back yard with a device the size of a shoe box, the ZWO Seestar S50.

I'm still trying to figure out how to best process the images from the Seestar. This image of Andromeda was 184 20-second images stacked in the Seestar app and finished in Photoshop. I have tried using a stacking/processing program called Siril, but all I used it for here was to remove a greenish cast.

Next is an image of the Eagle Nebula, home of the famous Pillars of Creation. If you zoom way in on the center of this image, you can see the faint fuzzy pillars. For a better view, see the latest images from the Webb space telescope. Ultimately there is a better version somewhere of just about everything I can do with the Seestar, but there's still some satisfaction in being able to do this.
