Had to image the Whirlpool Galaxy Friday night, it was high above, so less atmosphere to shoot through. As you can see, lots of good things happened, but lost too many frames to light pollution, so I will design some light shields.

I'll be the first to admit, telescopes are no cure for insomnia. Woke up before 2AM, got 2-1/2 hours imaging M101, the Pinwheel Galaxy. I'm saving the data, will combine with another night, (hopefully).
@JocelynBenson It was reckless policies of Sen Warren, pushed against the merger. The icing on cake, Warren bought shares at fire sale prices afterwards, 2 weeks ago sold them for millions.
Celebrating the first day of Birth Day Week with a shout out from @CristinaRocks Treat your ears to the sweet swoons of classic alternative music! Spoiler alert, Cristina played some Clan of Xymox for me, I love it! Thank you Cristina, you're so wonderful.

@DaveBondyTV I called and emailed my MI representatives, imploring them to move 2025 MI HB4304 which restricts Geo-engineering, but it died in the MI senate committee since.
Granted *some* solar will work, but mandating & forcing the entire state into it is madness.
Man alive, I'd say my new AstroTech 115EDT telescope has decent resolving power. This is Bode's Galaxy, 12-million light years away, about 2 hours of integration time.
@Osbournegreen Not only did I notice, wrote my reps, called them too. There's still a lot of blow back on astronomy sites, but they're starting to realize it's not a hoax.
