The sky is doing fun things again, so I had the cam out last night (and tonight too). Halfway in, it looks like more aurora stuff happening. Good night! (Posted this last night but it was put into drafts. Gaah.)

The winners of the Royal Observatory Greenwich Annual Astrophotography Competition were announced in Sept 2023.

This year's overall top spot came from the Galaxies category—"Andromeda, Unexpected", titled for the large, blue plasma arc pictured next to our nearest galactic neighbor. The plasma streak is actually a new discovery and is now being studied by scientists as perhaps one of the largest phenomenon of its type anywhere in the known universe.

Winners in other categories include:

Moon, winner: shows Mars setting behind the Moon's southern hemisphere, shining bright during a rare alignment [credit: Ethan Chappel]

Moon, runner up: the colourful hue that surrounds the moon is a lunar corona formed while bright moonlight is diffracted by water droplets in thin clouds [credit: Miguel Claro]

Best Young Astronomy Photographer: the Running Chicken Nebula [credit: Runwei Xu and Binyu Wang, both 14 years old]

Best Newcomer: Sh2-132 Nebula [credit: Aaron Wilhelm]

Skyscapes, winner: the extremely rare phenomena captured in this photograph are called sprites. Sprites occur like lightning, high in Earth's atmosphere, and are seldom witnessed from the ground.

Skyscapes, runner up: time-lapse photography of star trails. The movement of the stars in the northern and southern hemispheres both appear to bend away from the stars moving along the celestial equator. [credit: Louis Leroux-Gere] {source: Space.com}

My very first time-lapse recording. 3 days of work in 30 seconds.

I listened to a song and made an association and drew a picture about it, recording the timelapse so that I could make people listen to the song so I could prove it

I tried to capture some of the Geminids but the moon was too boastful 😆 Oh well, still another fun video of the sky around here. (Music is another copyright-free piece called "Ambient lo-fi beat (1122691)".)
