Adventures in Imaging the Unknown | 2024-02-25

Sometimes it feels like we see the same objects imaged over and over again. But there is so much more out there than the usual suspects -- ever heard of Strottner-Dreschler 44, EGB 6, or Pa J0637.4 +3327? Jon Talbot hunts objects that are rarely imaged or newly discovered -- believe it or not, amateur astronomers make a lot of these discoveries! He'll tell us about his adventures in imaging these little-known or never-imaged targets. There are many planetary nebulae and supernova remnants out there ready for their close-up!
Jon Talbot is a retired Flight Meteorologist with the Air Force Reserve "Hurricane Hunters," and is located in Ocean Springs, MS, just north of the Gulf Coast. He flew through more than 150 hurricanes and cyclones during his career, and now pursues the perhaps-less-adrenaline-filled hobby of astrophotography in retirement.

Very interesting and useful presentation! It is true that after a while we look for other less maintream targets. I am not retired yet, and I am still a newbie in this hobby but this is a good plan for the future. Many thanks!
