Team Celestron member Damian Peach spent a few weeks in Barbados when Jupiter was at opposition to take advantage of the excellent seeing conditions. His Celestron equipment captured a crisp image of Jupiter with Io and Europa. Equipment: Celestron 14” EdgeHD

•@astrofalls has taken astrophotography to a whole new level, linking up 3 Celestron RASAs to capture Comet C/2023 A3 from Texas. This setup is simply one of the most jaw-dropping we've ever seen! Bray's setup even picked up the antitail of the comet & the M5 Comet conjunction!

Instagrammer @astromono_dani captured the Moon’s Mare Imbrium at different points in its phase cycle, highlighting different details. This is a great reminder to observe the subtle changes in the night sky from night to night. Equipment: Celestron 9.25” EdgeHD telescope

I got a feeling that tonight's gonna be a good night! Grab your telescope, gather your stargazing crew, and immerse yourself in the magic of this rare event.

In one month, Mars reaches opposition. The Red Planet will be big, bright, & much closer to Earth than usual. Unlike 2018, Mars won’t be covered by a dust storm this time, so we’ll be able to see tons of detail. This event is truly a must-see for all astronomers. Are you ready?
