A well thought through article.
The magnetogram showing the CME impact at approximately 2026-01-19 19:20UT. #astro
Aurora visible here last night. The magnetogram shows the time of the CME impact and the video was captured by my NW facing meteor camera. A fast time lapse (sadly in mono) from 22:00 to 23:00. #astro
That's beautiful, nicely understated.
It was an all night stack, about 13 hours total. At least 300 frames in the stack.
Quadrantids on Saturday Night were pretty impressive. This is from my NW facing Camera RMS UK00DE from South Cheshire. Ignore the aircraft trails, the software does. #astro #meteor
Looks lovely in colour, something that a minion image just can't convey. Here is my mono image, a stack of 100 x 30 second exposures
Just an amateur astronomer. Very active. Member of the BAA. I build a lot of my own stuff. I am a STEM Ambassador, I take astronomy into schools.
Very impressive. I really like those
Jupiter - last night - 20251219 - 20:53. Seeing 3 and eventually dewed out. #astro #jupiter Edge11HD and ZWO ASI 224MC Camera.
Year end #SolarCan time. This makes it look like we have had a better autumn than we have really had. #astro #solar
Yes

You may be right. My thoughts are that meteor trails fade in gradually to a max then fade out again rapidly. Satellite trails cut in/out far more abruptly.
Beautiful image but that looks like a satellite trail. Intrusive light pollution
I have two cameras here in Cheshire and captured almost 1000 meteors on Friday evening. Mind blowing
B&W image of Geminid meteors showing as different intensity and length streaks of light plus star trails around the pole in the background and lights from distant cars along the horizon. Over 200 captured
Radiant map of the Geminids showing 245 blue streaks captured by one camera on 2025-12-12 coming from one point, the radiant of the meteor shower
The Geminids are already firing and the peak should be tonight (14 Dec), clouds permitting. The Moon is kindly hiding too. These are a few from Friday night. Capturing 200+ in each of our cameras overnight (we have 17 in the Society). π
A few aircraft trails but they just happen to be in the camera frame when a meteor was detected. The very bright meteor in the second image does not appear to be a geminid, probably a sporadic.

Geminids meteor shower peaking tonight. 928 meteors captured last night by my two Global Meteor Network RMS Meteor Cameras here in South Cheshire. Total blown my last overnight count be about 800!

Close your eyes and pretend it's Forest Green.
On Aug. 12, 1981, the great grandfather of the computers we all know today was born: the IBM PC. Who, among all the nerds, excited then, could predict that 40 years later the grand-grand-children of the IBM PC, with ifinitely more computing power, will be used mainly to watch porn and spread hate?
A WL and a Ha from this morning. Nothing spectacular but its nice to see that the Northern Hemisphere is now catching up on spots (Double Peak) after being dormant for a great deal of last year
Day 5 of my Global Meteor Detection System. Just one camera at the moment but some nice Perseids captured last night despite the cloud cover and moonlight. #meteor #perseids @southcheshireastro.bsky.social
My copy arrived courtesy of AMZ last week..
Impressive Aurora photos. Beautifully captured.
Moon and Venus conjunction. A bit of a grab shot as cloud and rain was rolling in. 2 mins later, they were gone. It looks dim, but the moon is correctly exposed. DSLR and 400mm lens
