PROJECT VOYAGER

[neat osprey]

Also i want to have a v taper, im on the way there, i just need bigger shoulders back and chest

Legs too

I guess no skipping leg day

[fossil barn]

Definitely, legs are really importent in landing punches

And agility

Look at Mohammad Ali

[neat osprey]

Oh yeah

[fossil barn]

The guy was agile while delivering deadly punches

[neat osprey]

Agility im slower than a snail

[fossil barn]

You could try stretches

[neat osprey]

Yeah i need streches

[fossil barn]

Stretch the ligaments

Work on speed

And leg day of course

[neat osprey]

Yeah

Now fr bye

[fossil barn]

Bye

[dusky hound]

I got a 11 inch sct will it work

[hardy gulch]

ye that’s good

[earnest oyster]

Trust me

[icy plinth]

Why were we talking about exercise in a Jupiter project forum

[nimble lichen]

What i can really recommend you is climbing. Climbers are very nice and strong people, also theres no such thing as rivalry. Also, you can feel a quick improvement with your strength and overall body fitness. Going climbing was one of my best decision I‘ve made last year, and I really just love it!

[fiery delta]

That sounds really fun!

[icy plinth]

Tbh if there was rivalry that would be a nightmare

[fossil barn]

Because he wants to beat his bully’s

And I am for that

Because bully’s are no humans

[icy plinth]

Absolutely

[fossil barn]

They are the scums of the world that only feed on others like parasite’s and can’t never fulfill their hunger because the more they bully the deeper there dipression and a want of approval of there mates becomes

All in all

Scums

And when defeat faces them they break down like baby’s

Cry for there mommy and pappie that went to get the milk

Scums

Srry for the rant

But the truth needed to get out

[icy plinth]

Honestly man there are 2 methods

One is beat their ass

2 is embarrass them hard

[fossil barn]

I used a third methode(report them to the teacher so much and get my father to spam the teachers email till the school expels them) worked pretty good

[fossil barn]

But this one is fun

[icy plinth]

Barely ever works

[fossil barn]

This one is prob more funny

[icy plinth]

Teachers are robots I swear

[fossil barn]

Worked in my case

[fossil barn]

Well, yea, but my school was very small, only like 4 teachers, and the bully was bullying other kids too

So we kinda banded together and got them expelled

Mind you it was very hard

Took a whole year

So yea

Beat there @sses, but I was very chubby weak kid 5 years ago

[icy plinth]

Used to be back in the old days

[fossil barn]

But I am glad I was bullied, made me train and get better than ever before

But that is only of course after the bullying, being in the process was not fun

[earnest oyster]

Can I get accepted now

[heady coral]

Get a barlow

[earnest oyster]

Get me a money

[hardy gulch]

yeah way too low res to see any small storms which is what they were going for I think

[fossil barn]

That

[heady coral]

Get me Celestron C6

[fossil barn]

Oooh

A trade

Like the old days

[icy plinth]

No.

[fiery delta]

Mister @icy plinth

So turns out last time i shot wrong

turned out like shit

Today i will (hopefully) shoot correctly

i'll send results here

[neat osprey]

Guys i made my bullies nose bleed

Im joking

But i made them stop bullying mr

For nlw

Now*

Also i made my endourance stronger by doong cardio from school to the bus station

Damn i gotta run 7km from my school to the bus station

[neat osprey]

Nuh uh dont listen to me i was wrong

I was running 3km to the bus station

[fossil barn]

How?

[neat osprey]

I accidently punched him in the chest, bro scared me and i punched him

[fossil barn]

Wajo

He did not fight back right?

Shi

You dropped something

👑

[neat osprey]

Nahh, bro was in pain

[fossil barn]

But be aware that these things always try to gather up again with some friends

So be aware of that

And if they group up

Run

There is no fighting

But these things do get scared, they might not try it again

[neat osprey]

My adrenaline response is to run

And my reflex is to punch

My dad scared me and i accidentaly punched him it the stomach

[fossil barn]

Oh wo, my dad would fling me to tokyo(joking but he would be mad)

[fossil barn]

Need to keep that reflex in if they got more people

[neat osprey]

Yeah mine was pretty mad too, but later on he complimented me that is a good thing

[fossil barn]

But need to go to sleep now, bye

[fossil barn]

Ah, tbh it was good timing from what I am hearing from you

That reflex helped you lose that bully

[neat osprey]

Probably yes

Thanks to my homies that hit mr

Beacuse of them i developed a punch reflex

[dusky hound]

should i use my ir methane filter

i am gonna image tonight so i am asking

[icy plinth]

Try it

[dusky hound]

ya i have been meaning to try it anyways but never got to it

idk when tonight i am gonna get to it since ill be messing around with narrowband filters

[hardy gulch]

Everything will be significantly dimmer and lower resolution, but should be neat on Jupiter and Saturn

[dusky hound]

i thought it would be good on the package it said it was good for planitary cloud detail

[hardy gulch]

Ripped this image from some Cloudy Nights post so they aren’t mine, but this is what Jupiter and Saturn look like in ch4

[dusky hound]

thats cool

[hardy gulch]

Very interesting but yeah it won’t be as practical as in visible wavelengths

[icy plinth]

Specs?

[hardy gulch]

24” dob

it gets a lot better than that

but I just did a quick search for an example of what ch4 looks like

[fiery delta]

Me chillin in a 8" dob with no other equipment rather than a 25mm and 20,4mm looking at the moon 🍷 🫲

[neat osprey]

Me not chillin with my 5 inch newt on an eq2 mount with an ra motor already failing to track objects and a super noisy ASI224MC

[fiery delta]

5 inch newt wild 💀
I am only able to look at my balcony with the powerseeker 80eq 🍷 🗿

[long root]

Whats your setup? Im just wondering

[neat osprey]

Yeah but the eq2 mount is a pain in the ass. It wobbles like crazy

[fiery delta]

You didn't see the powerseeker mount 💀

[neat osprey]

Oh i had a powerseeker once, used it once then sold it. The mount killed this hobby for me

[fiery delta]

You basically canceled the free time trial lmfao

[neat osprey]

Yeah, then i got ito the hobby again and bought my beloved 5 inch newt

[earnest oyster]

70mm aperture 900mm fl f/14 refractor

[fiery delta]

Niceeeeee

[neat osprey]

The seeing💀

[earnest oyster]

That’s relatable others

[neat osprey]

Nahh the seeing was the worst, when i started recordint the atmosphere calmed down

[sleek anvil]

Whts the resulr

[neat osprey]

Didnt stack the data yet

[sleek anvil]

Do it

Also how do ppl get bullied

I never got bullied for some reason

[fossil barn]

https://tenor.com/view/dew-it-galactic-republic-palpatine-gif-21847982

[sleek anvil]

Should I do jupe or Saturn rn

[neat osprey]

I dont have time, maybe before bed

[sleek anvil]

Oki

[nimble lichen]

me too

[heady coral]

Some random prick head just picks a random person to pick on

[sleek anvil]

[icy plinth]

You forgot the second part

They get they ass beat they stop and if they don’t they proceed

[long root]

Hows this doing

[neat osprey]

We are progressing

[icy plinth]

I be encountering some menaces in my school now

I got it covered tho

[copper willow]

Could just set a timeframe of a couple of weeks for everyone to take as many captures with the redspot visible as possible, then derotate the best ones for each rotation so they face the same way? Woudn't need to rely on precise timing as much.

[icy plinth]

True

[neat osprey]

Yeah, but jupiter rarely is seen with the red spot placement. At least in my place

[wet vessel]

maybe you could have the other side of jupiter to image, just so whenever someone's out collecting data they can still contribute to the project even if the GRS isn't out

would be cool to maybe see storms from one side cross over to the other

[nimble lichen]

what did you do???

[icy plinth]

That’s no worries

I got it covered as I said

[neat osprey]

I think bro got a little violent

[icy plinth]

Exactly

[neat osprey]

Violence is the answer

Me and my bro were sparing but bro hit me in the bicep and now i can barely move my arm

[icy plinth]

I be in middle school so it’s kinda easy to beat someone up lol

[nimble lichen]

what class

[fossil barn]

Ma man himself is the menace

[fossil barn]

And how about your bully? Is he scared indefinitely or is he back at it again.

[neat osprey]

We friends now, i have no enemies

[neat osprey]

Prepare for highschool

[icy plinth]

They were the menaces

[nimble lichen]

what did you do???

[icy plinth]

We could follow the storms

[nimble lichen]

just say

pls

[icy plinth]

I smacked buddy hard

Damn near did it with a metal bottle

But I didn’t lol

I did smack bro tho

[nimble lichen]

good ol' 'merican style

[icy plinth]

Nah that would be guns

[nimble lichen]

what did he do to you?

[icy plinth]

Buddy took my water bottle and threw it on the ground for no reason

This the third object he messed up from me

[hardy gulch]

https://tenor.com/view/violence-gif-19730064

[icy plinth]

What in the world

[neat osprey]

Even tho my classmates (old bullies) from middle school messed up everything i had i didnt beat them up even if i couldnt i just didnt wanna use violence.

But that changed in high school

[icy plinth]

Soft

[nimble lichen]

i dont have any real enemies

maybe because im physical in good shape or just nice classmates (2nd option is more likely)

[hardy gulch]

no dawg

beating people up does not make you cool

[neat osprey]

Yeah, what he said

Now that im stronger i can beat up my classmates but i wont

[icy plinth]

only if they mess with me a bit too hard

i want to be chill

[ocean gazelle]

https://tenor.com/view/gigachad-chad-gif-20773266

True strength is having the ability to act in retaliation but not

Based

[neat osprey]

Then be chill

[neat osprey]

For some reason i can supress my anger till the point of snapping, i think i got that from my dad

Not sure tho who i got it from

[fierce mirage]

@icy plinth can I help?

I have a 1325mm scope

I can get color but back then I couldn't get that to work

[icy plinth]

Try getting color

Res a bit too low so you might wanna reshoot

This is around the ideal quality

To be qualified

[fierce mirage]

Ok

That was my first ever pic back when the great conjunction was a thing

I didjt know much then

[icy plinth]

Yeah

[fierce mirage]

If today is clear, I will image jupietr

Does it have to be jupiter so I can enter or can I submit saturn since jupiter rises like until 9:30pm and I have orchestra rehearsals at 8am

[icy plinth]

Uhh I’d say Jupiter :(

Also I’d personally say to fall asleep early and wake up early

[fierce mirage]

Ah that makes more sense

K

It might rain but the forecast says it clears up at like 12

[hardy gulch]

This a ‘21 image?

[fierce mirage]

Yep

I have the conjunction one but it's deep in my computer

[hardy gulch]

Nice

2021 Jupiter is so recognizable, super odd season

[icy plinth]

I wish I caught it then :(

[hardy gulch]

Phone ap

[hardy gulch]

Wow that is sweet

Love it

[fierce mirage]

it was when they were the closest and it was like my third ever image

[hardy gulch]

That’s crazy impressive

I remember seeing that conjunction

My image

I wish I could’ve seen it with my current gear and knowledge, prolly could’ve gotten a cool daytime image of the two

[fierce mirage]

ye

[icy plinth]

I missed it lol

[icy plinth]

Why is that good

[hardy gulch]

Thing I made a lil while back for my best 2021 shots

Tiny mars lol

[hardy gulch]

Samsung Galaxy a10e camera, did the job well enough

[fierce mirage]

i can try jupiter but it is very close to the moon

would that affect it?

[hardy gulch]

Nope

[fierce mirage]

k

its cloudy where jupiter is, to be let into this, can i take a picture of saturn or do i have to submit jupiter

[heady coral]

Jupiter

[fierce mirage]

K

[neat osprey]

Someone get me out of my school

This damn teacher is making me crazy

Crazy? I was crazy once. They locked me in a classroom, a rubber classroom, a rubber classroom full of idiots. And idiots make me crazy

[nimble lichen]

Crazy? I was crazy once.

[fossil barn]

Oh god

Not again

[neat osprey]

They locked me in a room

A rubber room

[nimble lichen]

what

[neat osprey]

A rubber room with rats

And rats make me crazy

[neat osprey]

Huh

[nimble lichen]

balkan is crazy💀

[neat osprey]

Well good morning mister austrian painter

Im joking ofc

[nimble lichen]

bruuhhh, what the heeeelll

[fierce mirage]

It was cloudy

Maybe until Wednesday or Tuesday I can image

[thorny flower]

:D

[icy plinth]

Yep you in

Uhh

[ocean gazelle]

Have more confidence in your data bro! Crop that in a little

[thorny flower]

if i do, the moon is no more :C

and I dont like a too much cropped pic of planets

I like to have sum space to appreciate the lonelyness of jupiter:D :c

[icy plinth]

I zoom it in to show off Jupiter

[thorny flower]

But isnt that too much?:D

Imaging jupi agaen

Poor seeing tho

I want to do a 1h rotation anination:D

[icy plinth]

Wait for good seeing then

[thorny flower]

It will be all night like that

High jetstream speed

[icy plinth]

As in wait a lot of time

[fierce mirage]

I should be able to image jupiter todat

[thorny flower]

Noice

I alredy got 13 x 3min vids

[fierce mirage]

Cool

[fierce mirage]

So all we do is send you the image and then we are in?

[fierce mirage]

Do you want a multiple day, time-lapse? Or how do you want that to work?

[thorny flower]

Somedays the redspot isnt visible

Voyager took a pic every 10h right?

[fierce mirage]

And entire day time lapse would be cool. If you can get someone from Asia or even like a pacific island and we image all day. That would be really neat

[thorny flower]

Have to be the same equip tho :c

[fierce mirage]

Wdym?

[thorny flower]

Cuz otherwise it would look weird

[fierce mirage]

I guess so

Couldn't we like have a fl minimum and we just color balance it the same?

And then just align the frames

[thorny flower]

Hmmmm ye

But resolution may be different:D

[fierce mirage]

Like min 1000mm

[fierce mirage]

True. But it hopefully wouldn't be for many frames and it would just look like a stitch

Still cool

[thorny flower]

Yee

Btw i only hav 3500 frames per vid XD

my hdd is too bad for my cam

So only 20fos

Fps

[fierce mirage]

Ah

If I crop, I can get like 60fps

I think. It's been a while

[thorny flower]

I tried using roi with firecapture but no improvements

Also handtrackibg it would be a pain

[fierce mirage]

Ye

[thorny flower]

Got my hour of video:D but i want 1h30min

Now

[fierce mirage]

Just dont stop

If you can keep on going

[thorny flower]

I hav skol tomorrow:D

[fierce mirage]

Ah

I'll try to get some too

[thorny flower]

N o i c

[fierce mirage]

I have orchestra rehearsal at 10am so I should be able to stay up a bit

[thorny flower]

Shesh

To have to edit 30 pics seperately will be annoying lol

Finally done

[fierce mirage]

Neat

Once you're done can you send eesulg

Result

[fierce mirage]

Im waiting for jupiter to be a bit higher so i can star setting things up

about how high should jupiter be

rn its like 8 degrees above horizon

[vale forge]

too too lo

low*

I tend to image it when it's near it's peak

For me that is just about 75

[fierce mirage]

about high is good?

ah ok

[vale forge]

30+ recommended

[fierce mirage]

however i can only stay up until like 11 cus of rehearsals tomorrow so i might image it like at 30degrees

[vale forge]

E

[fierce mirage]

at 10:53pm, it crosses the 30degree mark

[vale forge]

Cool

[fierce mirage]

so imma set up like at 10:20 and just center it and wait

[little seal]

You guys need any Saturn data from 10-1? @fierce mirage directed me here.

[fierce mirage]

i wasn't saying saturn specificlaly butwith that type of data, that could be useful for jupiter

as if you imaged jupiter...

[little seal]

I got jup data from 10-1

[fierce mirage]

ah ok

[fierce mirage]

i am going to set up now

[fierce mirage]

All set up

Just need to aim at jupiter

[fierce mirage]

I think it'd going pretty well

[neat osprey]

@fossil barn this is a 1h rotation

Poorly made tho, i need the Uv/IR cut filter asap

This is the single frame

I need more detail!!!!

[fossil barn]

Nice!!

[neat osprey]

Yeah, im quite happy with it, but i really want some detail

And finally i dont have to work out in my home gym!

Also i found it why is my Jupiter purple sometimes

Its something about focus, i need to be put of focus a bit to have the right color of jupiter

But i dont know why

[fossil barn]

Yea, I had that problem to visually, if the focus was off by a little bit Jupiter would appear purple

[fossil barn]

With time and hard work you will achieve that

[fossil barn]

That would help

[fossil barn]

And money of courses all them filters and cameras ought to be expensive

[neat osprey]

No you dont get me, if jupiter is perfectly in focus it would end up purple, but when i knock it out of focus a bit it will show its colours

[fierce mirage]

@little seal@vale forge@thorny flower@icy plinthlook!!!

[vale forge]

Wow

[fierce mirage]

thanks

i just took it rn

and with a zwo 120mc

am I in?

[little seal]

sick

just finished some jup

[fierce mirage]

i processed it better here

[fierce mirage]

thanks

[fierce mirage]

that looks really good. it looks 3d

[fierce mirage]

I would color balance it maybe like in registax

[little seal]

its mono

I gotta stack the color sequence later this morning

[fossil barn]

Wut? Why is that?

Does it have to do with the fact that you don’t have a UV/IR cut filter?

Mine must have been a case of CA

[neat osprey]

I dont know

I have to ask

[neat osprey]

Can you help me and ask in ask a nerd channel

[fiery delta]

Bro how do y use the app and be able to locate something using the scope

I literally can't find a way to find something on the sky using my 8" dob

I can't put my phone anywhere for it to be correctly placed

[vale forge]

lmao

I use it as a reference not a direct put on telescope locator

[thorny flower]

Finderscope?:D

[fiery delta]

Useless

My scope sees way more than my finder scope

That's why I want to point my scope exactly at a point 😐

I saw people laying flat their phone on their scope and be able to find anything

[thorny flower]

But u have to use it to point at something xd

The trick is to open both eyes and get a sense of it

But understandable if u have problems with deepsky obkects

[neat osprey]

Whats the app called

[fiery delta]

Meh but how do I detect an star if I need?

[fiery delta]

Idk but @thorny flower uses stellarium

[thorny flower]

If u rlly cant see it, u need the app ig :D

[fiery delta]

But how do I use the app 😭

[thorny flower]

Idk xd

I do t thibk u can

[neat osprey]

I need to lay my phonr flat to my scope, not vertically

[fiery delta]

Flat?

Nah it shows the things under me

I saw someone who used his phone flat on the scope

And I can't find the app

[neat osprey]

Same

I think its celestron or sum

[thorny flower]

Wasnt it like u have to buy the tripod for this and with the tripod u get a code for the app

[clear elk]

It’s an site I think, don’t remember the name

But celestron also has an app to use with some of there mounts

[fiery delta]

https://artyom-beilis.github.io/astrohopper.html

It's this one

[clear elk]

Yes

[neat osprey]

Thank you, i needed it

[fierce mirage]

look! i wasnt able to make a timelapse because it was late however

[thorny flower]

:o

P o g

[fierce mirage]

thank

[fierce mirage]

Am I in now?

[devout cairn]

Am I in?

[neat osprey]

I think you need to be more zoomed in

[fierce mirage]

Would you say I can help here?

[icy plinth]

Pretty promising

[fierce mirage]

So am I in?

[icy plinth]

Yes

[devout cairn]

this?

or is this better? collimation is off on this one though

[icy plinth]

Might wanna edit better but accepted

[fierce mirage]

I can image longer tonight

Can you image

[icy plinth]

No

[fierce mirage]

K

Can you pin the message you sent explaining the timelapse

Because I want to see it but it is too far back

[icy plinth]

Message

I haven’t updated it in a long time so it’s probably out of date

It is

[fierce mirage]

Ok. So every 9hr 56mins we take a picture? But what about its rotation? Or do we not want that

[icy plinth]

What we’re trying to do is shoot a thing like the gif shown where we image the same rotation (WINJUPOS will help majorly, in fact I might require it)

[fierce mirage]

What is the rotation in which we want the planet to be in?

With the red spot showing?

[fierce mirage]

You should take an image as a base and then send it or have someone else do that so we can use it as a reference frame for its rotation

[icy plinth]

We will probably schedule it soon

[fierce mirage]

Ok

[ocean gazelle]

Got a decent image of the Io transit on the 18th, forgot to send here

Kinda mad I didn't capture any more data, didn't realize how much of a difference 40 vs 60 degrees makes

AS3 LOVES shadow transits for stacking lol

That area is not artificially rounded, it was straight like that out of the stack lmao

Raw data, ignore the neptune capture profile

[fierce mirage]

Neat.

[ocean gazelle]

Astrosurface is really fun, got slightly better results with it, might switch over to it permanently lol

[fierce mirage]

How do you think i can improve on this? I took it at 1325mm wit zwo 120mc at 2.3ms and 60gain for a avi. File of 180secs @ocean gazelle

[little seal]

Got similar results with the same sensor

What's your aperture?

8"?

[fierce mirage]

4

It the astro fi 102mm maksutov

[fierce mirage]

Or you talking to him?

Also I stacked in autosttackert and registax for wavelet and color balance

[little seal]

Oh dam for 4" that's not bad

Yea I was referring to your image

[fierce mirage]

Ah ok

[fierce mirage]

The one advantage of a mak

[little seal]

They have rather large obstructions so their performance surprises me even more.

[ocean gazelle]

Could you send the raw tiff?

[fierce mirage]

Sure

However in like 1hr cus I am not at my house

[ocean gazelle]

No worries, I got nothing for a few hours

What aperture are you at?

At 2.3ms and 60 gain I'd say you could probably try barlowing up

[fierce mirage]

Ye

I am at 4inches

[ocean gazelle]

Great stuff for 4 inch dude

You could probably play with some backspacing and get a bit more detail by maybe like, getting a barlow and sticking only the front element on the nosepiece

You seem a little undersampled so I bet there's some more detail to get

[ocean gazelle]

thats the log file

:)

the .tiff one, send that

[fierce mirage]

like the processed one?

[fierce mirage]

where does that one come from?

[ocean gazelle]

yes the result file from as3, should be same folder

[fierce mirage]

?

?

[ocean gazelle]

okay yeah, you're a little undersampled

About the best I could do, fun seeing Callisto up there

[fierce mirage]

thats callisto?

how do you figure that out

[neat osprey]

Probably thru stellarium

[neat osprey]

What was the time of the capture

[ocean gazelle]

No, I’ve got inclinations memorized for this opposition. Callisto is furthest out, makes polar passes at about 1/3 Jupiters radius twice a month

Stellarium would work but mine needs updating, and also Callisto is the only moon that dim

[neat osprey]

Bro has the entire math book in his head

[ocean gazelle]

The power of autism symptoms baby

Also, I've got a max alt GRS transit tomorrow with 0.7 arc sec seeing the whole time

Could be huge

[neat osprey]

You better deliver good results

[ocean gazelle]

I got my IR685 delivered today, I’ll do my best 🫡

Gonna mess around with IR-RGB and some shorter exposure times

[thorny flower]

My seeing is shid dis week

3 - 1

[thorny flower]

54min rotation:D 36min left

will be annoying to align the rotation of the planet later on

[fierce mirage]

neat but that rgb balance is necessary

[thorny flower]

ofc lel

i just wanted to see how it looks like so havent eidted the pics yet

i hav 30 vids and it takes me 20min per vid to stack xd

[fierce mirage]

ah ok

[fossil barn]

What is lel

Laughing extra loud?

[thorny flower]

Idk but that would make sense :D

[fossil barn]

Let’s make that a word

Together

Lel Will be an official word

Lel

[thorny flower]

L e l

[ocean gazelle]

Those were the worst conditions in months

I could barely see the bands, GRS barely appears after stacking

1/5 AT BEST lol

[fossil barn]

Lel

The e and the l are unfortunately far apart on the keyboard

But stil

Lel

[thorny flower]

Lol

[fossil barn]

Noooo

Lel

[thorny flower]

L e l

[fossil barn]

Yesss

Lel

Let’s change our name to lel cult

@thorny flower

[thorny flower]

Xd

[fossil barn]

You can change the fistus part to lel

[thorny flower]

Yee

[fossil barn]

And then ducc to cult

[thorny flower]

-w-

Gud

[fossil barn]

Done

Wait

Lemme copy your name

But change it a bit

[thorny flower]

Also lel means laughing e v e n louder

[fossil barn]

Yesss

Done

@thorny flower

[thorny flower]

Gud boi-w-

[fossil barn]

Forgot the space

[thorny flower]

:S

[fossil barn]

Add the frost emoji

[thorny flower]

Yee

[fossil barn]

Yes

@nimble lichen

He has also done it

You. Should too

@thorny flower

Convince him

He does not want to

[thorny flower]

:D

Do it >:c

[nimble lichen]

no

[fossil barn]

Yes

[nimble lichen]

30€

[fossil barn]

Bruh

Why you Raisin the price?

But still

Nahhh

[neat osprey]

Guys i went fishing and i lost my fav lure😭

[fossil barn]

Oh I know that feeling all to wel

You know what happened to me?

I once went fishing with my dad

[neat osprey]

Yeah, 20€ down the drain

[fossil barn]

We packed up and left after we caught nothin, hundred meters away we realise that we forgot our lure box, some b a@@ person idiotic son of. Piece of pile of dog shi stole our lure box in less then a minute

[neat osprey]

You fish with your dad, thats a W

[neat osprey]

Dayummm

Wow

[fossil barn]

Yes

100 dollars

Down the drain

[neat osprey]

Yeah my dad stopped fishing

[fossil barn]

I still wanna beat that bi as person up

I was 7

[neat osprey]

Ow, well there is nothing to get worried about for me

[neat osprey]

That was 8yrs ago

That son of a b

[fossil barn]

Nah man stil

[fossil barn]

Yes, and I am every bit as angry as I was then even after 8 years

I mean stealing from a child

How bad are you

Because 100% that guy saw us leave

Because we were only 100m separated

[neat osprey]

Thats one ugly bastard

[fossil barn]

Yup

Agree

I remember crying

For like a whole day

I was devestated to say the least

But stil, losing a 20 dollar lure is painful

[neat osprey]

Yeah, and it was a new one too, just went to test it out

[neat osprey]

DAMN IT MY FOCUS WAS OUT

[thorny flower]

Noooo

[iron ledge]

noooooo

[devout cairn]

noooo

[fierce mirage]

Noooopoo

[devout cairn]

anyone know how to process close ups of the moon untracked

[ocean gazelle]

Autostakkert has a stack function that aligns them to themselves, should work

Surface stabilization

[icy plinth]

I have a plan, during winter break, if Jupiter is out and the GRS is centered, image it for about an hour (you only need to shoot minimum 2 videos, just gotta have the first and last ones an hour apart or so) for derotation

[fierce mirage]

K

So basically an animation but we are gonna derotate it

[fossil barn]

I am know going to change my name just so you know

I miss my old name

[little seal]

What is Caelium?

[fossil barn]

It means sky in Latin

Astrum means star

So I am a star and sky nerd

[little seal]

That's dope

[fierce mirage]

Guess what my name means

[thorny flower]

Same:DDD

[nimble lichen]

french is better

[thorny flower]

1h30min derotated:D

[fierce mirage]

Good

You could have made a time-lapse

[thorny flower]

i will

but takes ages

made some changes, apllied too much clarity to it:D

[devout cairn]

ty

[fossil barn]

You are a beaver cactus

[fossil barn]

And the 1344 is how far the Orion Nebula away is from us in lighyears.

[fiery delta]

It is a type of cactus

Beavertail Cactus

[little seal]

Oo nice

[fossil barn]

I luve me name

[icy plinth]

Tbh this project will flop lol 😔

[thorny flower]

Ofc:D cuz its not possible

But its a noice planetary timelapse channel ig

[icy plinth]

We will try and after it’s done I’ll rebrand it I guess

I guess it could be a Jupiter imaging channel lol

[thorny flower]

Ye:D

I hope it works somehow

[sharp mesa]

Planet monitoring channel ig

with a timelapse/project flair

I still believe that it can work but in map form for now, then we can project the maps in winjupos and get a nice voyager like one

https://alpo-j.sakura.ne.jp/Latest/j_Cylindrical_Maps/j22animL3.gif

[fierce mirage]

Why would it not work

[fossil barn]

My guy Ken is prob doin this on his own

He is on another league

[icy plinth]

Lack of planning and everyone’s images being… meh

[sharp mesa]

nah man, clouds 😶‍🌫️

[icy plinth]

That too

[fierce mirage]

Lol. It doesn't have to have great resolution but it would probably still show change

[icy plinth]

Honestly man we could do a moons Timelapse lol

And actually

I could collab with some Australian dude and make my own Timelapse

Or Uranus’ moons orbiting

[sharp mesa]

we would need min your level of quality to create a decent animation

[fierce mirage]

Ye. Ask like an australia person

[fierce mirage]

What?

[icy plinth]

Every 12 hrs I snap a photo

[sharp mesa]

min level of quality to create a useable jupiter animation

[fierce mirage]

Ah

[fierce mirage]

Is this good for a zwo 120mc

[sharp mesa]

scope?

[fierce mirage]

102mm 1325mm maksutov

[icy plinth]

Bro is so close :(

[fierce mirage]

Wdym

[icy plinth]

Almost enough to qualify

[fierce mirage]

What do I need

[icy plinth]

The details in the central bands at least

[sharp mesa]

latest maps from alpoj, pretty cool there tracking a small storm system

[fierce mirage]

Th side of jupiter without grs Is kinda bland lol. A 2x Barlow would help a bunch tho

[sharp mesa]

tbh with low resolution the great spot being there looks weird

[fierce mirage]

True.

[sharp mesa]

like this was one of my old images the grs looks so ugly

[icy plinth]

That Jupiter detail at the time was super great

[fierce mirage]

Ye. Idk why everytume I try to image jupiter the grs is always behind

[sharp mesa]

lol i plan my shoots to image grs

[fierce mirage]

Ah good idea

[sharp mesa]

cant afford that much imaging time cuz school, so image whenever something interesting is happening

[sharp mesa]

with a moon transit it still looks cool

also @icy plinth have you tried some polar projections

[deft hull]

for some reason, I always get the good seeing when there's no GRS

[thorny flower]

Same lol xd

[iron ledge]

same

[icy plinth]

I’ve seen them looks nice

[neat osprey]

Never back down never what?🗣️❗🗣️❗🗣️

[thorny flower]

Xd

[icy plinth]

I always have GRS in good seeing

[neat osprey]

Lucky you

When the grs is out i have bad seeing and the focus is impossible to achieve

[dusky hound]

my best jupiter so far seeing was crap last night

[little seal]

30 min rotation of Jup

[minor nacelle]

well its already past opposition, why would you wait a year to do this you dont need it to be opposition

[heady coral]

Jupiters not past opposition and that message was in July

[minor nacelle]

ahh shit alright

still

you dont need it to be 10% bigger to shoot

[heady coral]

I know that now…don’t know what I was trying to do back then though

[pulsar iron]

Is this data ok for this project?

[deft hull]

finally

[thorny flower]

Yay:D

[icy plinth]

Gamma increase it but yes

[long root]

DAYUM

[icy plinth]

Actually no

Sry

[icy plinth]

👨‍🍳

[minor nacelle]

grs?

[ocean gazelle]

Great Red Spot

[hardy gulch]

nah there’s actually no way you of all people said this

[dusky hound]

Ya thats not over cooked

[ocean gazelle]

For the sampling I'd say it's good restraint that he didn't cook it as hard as he could've too

[vale forge]

cooked? lmao no way dude

[lapis oak]

127 Mak with ZWO ASI 120mm MC

[iron ledge]

where did the colors go

[lapis oak]

Monochrome still, i have the filters, this was mostly just a test image. Next time ill have RGB

[fierce mirage]

What fl I have that exact same setup but with a 102mm mak

[lapis oak]

1900 💀

mm

better image quality wise

Manual tracking on the worlds worst alt az mount

[fierce mirage]

I would use region of interest

[fierce mirage]

Here's my jupiter with same setup

[lapis oak]

beautiful

[lapis oak]

I really need to get some images using filters

[earnest oyster]

Bruh 😎

[icy plinth]

He was cookin

[neat osprey]

Tbh you overcook, you need to turn down the heat by a bit

[icy plinth]

In a good way

[dusky hound]

i wanna see what i can do with your data if you want to send me it of like the orion nebula

[neat osprey]

Guys im taking a one month break from astronomy, my equipment made me lose my mind

[fierce mirage]

i feel ya. but i legit cant do that. i have a astrophotogaphy science project due in two weeks

[neat osprey]

Lucky you, in my country barely anyone has astronomy equpment, so i guess no used market for me which i need right now

[fierce mirage]

it wasnt really someone asking. for my school, we have a science proect and my nooby self one month ago chose to do it with my astro stuff but im having issues

[subtle brook]

Bada boom

Would that qualify?

[hardy gulch]

Is this a jpg

[icy plinth]

Too dark but YESSSS

[subtle brook]

I think the final pic is a bmp

I also work at an observatory that let's me use a 20" every week.

Which could be of help to the project 🙂

[icy plinth]

A 20”

Image an exoplanet pls

[subtle brook]

Lol the 30 is usually broken most times

[icy plinth]

:(

[fiery delta]

30 💀💀💀

[fiery delta]

FR FR

I wanna see a dwarf star ( plis)

[icy plinth]

Post it in solar system pics

[neat osprey]

Guys i cant to this project, my mount is broken and i cant to anything without it

[iron ledge]

I feel bad for you I hope you can fix it soon

[neat osprey]

I need to 3d print some parts to make it work, but my 3d printer needs to be fixed im waiting on the parts for it

[thorny flower]

:D

[fossil barn]

Jo this is very good

[thorny flower]

Thx:D

[neat osprey]

We got quiet a bit

[heady coral]

You don’t know what happened, we don’t know what’s gonna happen to this project anymore
||Low spec is gone||

@sharp mesa any idea on what shall we do? Try and continue this on?

[copper willow]

I'd say we just go make a google drive folder, then drag in stacked images(preferably including the GRS) with a timestamp. Over a two week period between the 26th of oct and the 9th of nov, so two weeks with the opposition in the middle. Then we could do something cool with all the images perhaps just a simple animation or actually do the original idea wth derotation.

[earnest oyster]

Idk

[copper willow]

Basically if you shoot jupiter during that timeframe drag the stack into the folder. No orgnisation no planning required

[fossil barn]

What happened to @lowspec?

what happened to him??

Wow

He really is

[thorny flower]

D:

[nimble lichen]

https://tenor.com/view/rip-coffin-black-ghana-celebrating-gif-16743302

[thorny flower]

Xd

[fierce mirage]

Lowspec gone?

[neat osprey]

Wait

Is he dead

@LowSpec oh yeah i cant tag him

Is he banned

I guess @sharp mesa is taking over if we dont hear from our boi LowSpec

[sharp mesa]

apparently hes banned he dmed me

he told me to ask mr ryan what is going on

im busy tho

[neat osprey]

Should i ask Ryan?

[sharp mesa]

sure

[misty cargo]

Wait what

Rip

[iron ledge]

Here are your answers guys

[heady coral]

Yup, Ryan got absolute pissed at him

[misty cargo]

So, this project still up?

[little seal]

Bro tryna blind people

[heady coral]

Yeah we’ll still try and do things but right now stuff is really u organized

We don’t know who’s in or not but we’ll try to make a plan later this month

[nimble lichen]

Should we include Lowspec?

[thorny flower]

Xddd

[neat osprey]

So who will be the organisator now?

Or is this project a flop

[hardy gulch]

could always just make a new server for this with lowspec if you rly wanted

[neat osprey]

Yeh but lowspec is banned from this server

[iron ledge]

He meant by making a another server dedicated to this project

[neat osprey]

We could do it

Yeah

[nimble lichen]

Guys

Lowspec

Told me that he‘ll try the server idea

[thorny flower]

Shesh

[fierce mirage]

Oof. Why is he banned? He never did anything too bad

Nvm I just saw message

[subtle brook]

I would probably cancel the project for various reasons, the biggest being that all the pictures would massive defferences in deatil, and focal lengths.

[fierce mirage]

or you could have an fl requirement, and have every member have a quality check. it might look a little weird but it would just show all the effort put into it

[subtle brook]

yeah, but even at that the atmosphere could make it look wonky, this is 2 pics with the exact same setup

[fierce mirage]

oh wow. then maybe also a seeing requirement lol, each image you take gets quality checked by ken himself

nvm he probably wont do that

maybe just have like a goal to achieve. like detail in lower hemisphere and if it achieved the image is good?

[subtle brook]

I mean like I could try to take it over... but juggling working at an observatory and school stuff

[fierce mirage]

cool. i wish i worked in one

[subtle brook]

I would prob have some crazy expectations too lol

[fossil barn]

I mean, why would you do that

[neat osprey]

Bro didnt know where to stop with the jokes

[minor nacelle]

thats not what he said though

he specified he never said to look using a telescope

[fossil barn]

Yea but the mere suggestion to do so is already dumb. Just don’t do that.

[fossil barn]

Hé coullllddddd make a second account and just pretend to be a new boss

[neat osprey]

Yeah

[inland geode]

dead

[hardy gulch]

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/1102670270378033304/1109191142261661756/jeepers.gif

[earnest oyster]

Is this dead

[subtle brook]

Yeah

We need someone to take the project over

[neat osprey]

Someone will eventuallx

Opposition is close

[fierce mirage]

you or ken lol

is 3.0 drizzle a lot? because it took forever to process and took up a lot of space, would making it 2.0 be faster?

[thorny flower]

Never have seen a case wehre 3 drizzle is necesssry lol

[neat osprey]

Whats drizzle?

[thorny flower]

Its for correcting undersampled images, firstly used by nasa with hubble

[neat osprey]

What software can i use it for that

[thorny flower]

It comes with the stacking program, either autostakkert for planets or dss for dso

[ocean gazelle]

I would be willing to take it over, my seeing is inconsistent but I’m willing to setup the google drive and process the data as it comes in

About once every two weeks I should get something solid from my scope, I’m limited pretty heavily by mountain downwash sadly.

[subtle brook]

I could, but if someone else wants to do it, I'm good with that too

[fossil barn]

This is sad

This was actually a cool project

[fossil barn]

Anybody???

Here

Are we gonna quit

Ken

[hardy gulch]

I mean Alpo pretty much does this all the time right

[devout cairn]

I’ll still do it just clouds in the uk

[neat osprey]

i wanna do it but i dont have the right equipment for that, also its hella cloudy here

[vale forge]

i have the time
but i have 2 iq so

[neat osprey]

guys we wanna make this project happen

@vale forge please be the boss of this project

[vale forge]

what no lol

[neat osprey]

cmon man

[vale forge]

ken prob 500 iq more than me

[neat osprey]

you said you got time

[vale forge]

i have the time he got the brains

so

[neat osprey]

ye but ken said he doesnt have time

[vale forge]

time is useless without at least 10 iq
i have 4

[neat osprey]

well i have -4

someone gotta take over this project

[vale forge]

not me man

I don't even know how to make the map

[neat osprey]

same

lets tag ken

@sharp mesa Will ya take over the project

[subtle brook]

I will take over if we do it in December

[sharp mesa]

I'll take over for now ig

Then someone else in dec

[thorny flower]

:o

[subtle brook]

I will do December then

[devout cairn]

Opposition in 3 days and a storm is hitting the uk….

[fiery delta]

I can

Give me a 2,000,000" dob and let me take over

[subtle brook]

30

[long root]

I might go shoot jupiter in a few days

I just need to buy a t ring and a collimator

[neat osprey]

Its cloudy asf for me

[devout cairn]

I have been blessed in uk with good weather for like 4 days straight which is unheard of

[misty cargo]

This project still up?

[subtle brook]

Technically... yes?

[devout cairn]

How does the project work again like the capture process?

[heady coral]

Image Jupiter at the same spot and put it into an animation maker and reveal Jupiters cloud belts shifting

[devout cairn]

So the Great Red Spot in the same place? Over many nights

[heady coral]

Yeah

[heady coral]

It's sad that we forgot about this, I remember the conversation that made this thing happen

[neat osprey]

Its dead asf

We said that we gonna do it during thw start of december but here we are 4 days before christmas and still no progress

[fierce mirage]

its alive!!!

kinda forgot tbh

[devout cairn]

We should start it up again just trying to take as many images with the grs

[sharp mesa]

we could just put all our jupiter images taken this apparation and put em together into animation

[fierce mirage]

how do i know if i drizzle or no? can you tell by just gear used?

[neat osprey]

Yeah but the problem is my uv ir cut filter didnt come (yet) and also lowspec said that i dont qualify

[fierce mirage]

hes gone

this project can now be more inclusive lol. The more people, we can make a better timelapse

[sharp mesa]

no matter the quality, just send em in

[fierce mirage]

from what time periods ken?

[heady coral]

Easiest and obvious reference is the GRS so shoot when the GRS is in the middle of the South equatorial band

Gotta be constant so take every chance you get

[devout cairn]

What if we have data already with it in?

[fierce mirage]

just to clarify, we are doing this to observe weather patterns right?

[heady coral]

Yes

[heady coral]

What do you mean? Like using older data?

[devout cairn]

Ye presumably if it is recent ish I guess

[fierce mirage]

we are going to make it a timelapse in chronologica order so as long as there is data to bridge that gap we should be okay

[fierce mirage]

i was gonna image but transaperncy and seeing is bad

[fierce mirage]

Gonna image jupiter rn since moon is too bright for my project

[fierce mirage]

about every how many minutes should an animation wait?

[heady coral]

Jupiters clouds move very fast so when we start we need to keep it constant, any gap that’s larger then a week will maybe be too much

[untold prism]

@harsh birch

[edgy spindle]

skibidi toilet

🥶

[untold prism]

Wtf are you doing on here

You have a lens my guy

[edgy spindle]

just lookin around

[untold prism]

Do you get a notification everytime I say something in astorbiscut

[edgy spindle]

no

just lookin aroun

[untold prism]

What are the chances

How did you see my skibidi toilet rizz

Simply do not understsnd

[fierce mirage]

Skibidy

[edgy spindle]

your skibidi toilet rizz is present every in this ohio sigma server

[untold prism]

Yessss

[nimble lichen]

Gyaaaaatttttt

[fierce mirage]

Anyways, what if we make this project some sort of sign up list. Every two days for example, you sign up for a period of time and then so on with different people contributing time into it and then in the next rotation of jupiter someone from opposite of them does it and so on

[vale forge]

the weather: i disagree

[fierce mirage]

Good point, which is why you arent going to sign up for all days, we need a backup person for every 9hr 56mins so if the weather cancels out for someone, the other can do it

[ember forge]

but what if it's cloudy for both

[fierce mirage]

Do you see how many poeple are on this forum

[sharp mesa]

its very simple, just upload anything you have, and someone (probably me some day) will get the sufficient quality data and create interesting animations with it

[fierce mirage]

Ya

[sharp mesa]

even if the times are not synced, it still works alright

for example: the voyager animations

[fierce mirage]

It should be in chronological order tho right at least?

[sharp mesa]

yeah ofc just put the date and time in ut

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VeU5Hm74T4w
for example here, its jittery the times are not synced per orbit etc but it still looks cool

[fierce mirage]

Cool

[nimble lichen]

Where is the link?

[sharp mesa]

https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1PREfLdPsUxC5Xh9lAuuMnO-g9Pag3VIq?usp=sharing

everyone i made a link just add any jupiter images, remember to put date and time in ut

don worry about quality

[neat osprey]

I guess this project flopped

[sharp mesa]

fr

[fierce mirage]

Yeah...

[paper rock]

i just dicovered this project and it looks like it could work, you just need to have more simmlar equipment and seing bc from what ive seen it kinde worked but some images in the animation were way shareper than others so it didn't all work very well. id love to help but j have a 750fl telescope so jupiter is a lil dot on the screen for me but i please don't quit, it's a grate project

[neat osprey]

I mean we can try as soon as i get clear skyes

[subtle brook]

I think the problem was the weather this winter, Ive gotten 3 clear nights since december like 12th

[thorny flower]

Dis project was doomed from the beginning on cuz of dis factor

[subtle burrow]

Did any gifs actually end up coming out of this or just a lot of jupiter pics?

[heady coral]

Nothing really came out of this

Every since he got banned, this fell quickly cause no one wanted to spring into action

[subtle burrow]

womp womp

[neat osprey]

@subtle burrow womp womp my ahh

[nimble lichen]

Nous n'avons pas le temps...

[clear elk]

Baguette?

[untold prism]

Low spec does not want to come back to this hell hole

His advancements will get him nerd

He has a 9.25” SCT now and multiple filters

[neat osprey]

Dayum

[clear elk]

Why not make a new server for this purpose?

[ember forge]

well then the server would die

[heady coral]

the trouble of different equipment

[untold prism]

You can I am a wide field astrophotographer

[clear elk]

Yeah same, was just a thought, but I don’t think enough people are comitted enough to make this work

[thorny flower]

Guys stop, its not even possible if we dont have the same rig, it would look awful xd

[neat osprey]

Truw

True

[fierce mirage]

Gg lowspec😔

[thorny flower]

:D

[neat osprey]

RIP lowspec

It has been a long time

[iron ledge]
