Astronomy with a large helping of physics and a pinch of the other sciences.
A picture of the moon that I took about 15 minutes ago out of my bedroom window. I used a Canon PowerShot SX260 HS at full zoom, balanced against the window frame.

This picture that I took on my phone through the eyepiece really doesn’t do it justice, but I got a wonderful view of the moon though my ‘scope tonight :)
Didn’t get to see the asteroid tonight, but I did have a look at the moon before the clouds set in. I took this with my phone through a telescope that’s quite a bit larger than my own. :)

Took this picture of the moon tonight with my phone through my telescope, I’m still getting used to the camera on my new phone though so it’s not my best… I like it anyway though :)
