    You should have talked to the red bunny, who says: You could do even better! Add a tube exhaust fan below the main mirror, which increases your luck in lucky imaging, because it reduces tube and mirror seeing that never stops entirely, especially not if the night cools down, by sucking out warm air. And slightly stop down the main mirror edge with a ring (e.g. 3d printed) to hide the diffraction of the mirror clamps and the often not entirely perfect mirror edge. A few mm suffice, just check the halo of a bright star to see the difference.

      @@akarandom1 I was wondering that too and found something called will-o'-the-wisp. It is a phosphorescent light seen hovering or floating at night over marshy ground, thought to result from the combustion of natural gases, but it is weird. They have been reported to be seen in moors and marshland which could be nearby the field, whether it is true or not, it does sort of explain the phenomenon.

      It's only creepy because we are genetically programmed to be scared in the dark. If you saw it in the day it wouldn't be creepy. 9pm winter, creepy. 9pm summer, not creepy :) But yeah very interesting sighting, share we don't know the exact date and time. My guess is possibly helicopters maybe doing power line inspections or something.

      Azza Johno: No it not looks more detailed, they look better while he has less light coming in, the prof picture is in my opinion over exposed , still the details and resolution are far better , and he stop the comparison in the right moment so you can't see his failure. Of course for the equipment he use it is an amazing Photo.And on his Photo the whole Galaxy is getting blurry and washed out so don't fool yourself.

    years ago i had 2 telescopes. cant remember their names but one was long and thin and the other was med length and a little fat. i did look at the moon a few times but my knowledge was zero. i ended up ruining both of them while moving and gave up by tossing them in the garbage .. over the years ive grown to love the night sky. ive watched many many videos online of deep space and so much more, viewed many pictures. it all boggles my mind with amazement . someday i will get another telescope one a bit better so i can view distant places .
    every time i go outside at night my eyes are glued to the sky, i can feel the energy almost feels like a recharge to my soul .
    now i have found this ch and will have to binge watch all ur videos . thanks for what you do
