New Image: Jupiter and Saturn

#1

Post by Jnicholes »

So, my new telescope has been amazing me with the deep sky photography I’ve been doing with my phone. I decided to try something else as an experiment. I have a very cheap camera, an Orion starshoot USB eyepiece II. I decided to see what would happen if I combined this cheap camera with a powerful telescope.

No barlow lens, no filters. Just out of curiosity.

Once again, the results astounded me after running them through Registax.

As you can see, the great red spot on Jupiter is plainly visible. The belts are also visible. As for Saturn, you can see the rings going in front of the planet.

Astounding, at least in my opinion.

Please let me know what you guys think of these photos.

Coolio!!!
very Coolio!!!!
Binoculars; Celestron Skymaster 18-40 X 80 zoom, Bushnell7-15 X 35 zoom, a couple of older single speed Bushnells that ride around in the car for weather spotting clarification
Scopes; Tiny little Mak-Cass Celestron c90 spotter scope that lets me count the moons of Jupiter and with which I can see Saturns rings in Mickey Mouse phase
Old Meade 1000mm f/11 that was missing the finder scope and ring so I rigged one onto the barrel using duct tape and a bit of cardboard and that actually works and I can count the moons of Jupiter with this one too.
Meade 6" reflector,(really elderly), found at a yard sale, the tube is a bucket of rust and corroded mirror but the mount and tripod will be recoverable so hooray for that.
Cameras; Mamiya medium format 645 with a couple of polaroid backs and a series of wide angle to 50mm lenses
Konica-Minolta 35mm,Sony alpha dslr's, up to the a900 full frame, mostly got them used because I don't have much money.
