Here are a couple of mosaics of the Summer Triangle taken last week... Small http://www.globalobservers.net/SkyImages/2006_MilkyWay/2006_MilkyWay_SummerTriangle_small.html Larger http://www.globalobservers.net/SkyImages/2006_MilkyWay/2006_MilkyWay_SummerTriangle_large.html -- Pete http://www.digitalsky.org.uk

I didn't realize there were so many HII regions in Cygnus.

Really good pic, Pete. I assume You used a motorized tracking system. What was the length of each exposure? Now that the 20D has been discontinued, I wonder if there will be a replacement. Dave

Well if it is'nt the astrochav. The constellations are a wonderful thing,in fact the Ra/Dec geometry which keeps a star within a constellation tied to a terrestial meridian in 23 hours 56 min bears a strange resemblence to a warped-space-every-valid-point-is-the-center-of-the-universe you guys subscribe to. Let me show you what the geometry of 23 hours 56 min 04 sec looks like - http://www.opencourse.info/astronomy/introduction/02.motion_stars_sun... Sometimes it is called Isaac's clockwork mechanical solar system or albert's universe but it would be hilarious if it were not that it highlights the absence of real astronomers.As far as I am concerned,the worst is over,the silly wordplays that emerged with Newton cannot compete with contemporary technology which affirms just how wonderful the original Copernican insight is and the later refinements. Would love to see the Panis Quadragesimalis of Kepler,seen on page 86 *, rendered into an animated graphic form in terms of raw data against the stellar background and orbital comparisons between Mars and Earth as he originally intended. * http://mitpress.mit.edu/journals/pdf/POSC_13_1_74_0.pdf
