I took about 50,000 photos through a 14" telescope last night to produce this: A hyper-detailed photo of the full moon. The fidelity of the photo was great enough to allow me to greatly enhance the color, revealing a hidden world of geological diversity.

Saturn on October 4-5th.
Very good seeing again during this session but poor transparency for much of it due to high clouds.
Despite this, later in the session a very dark ring spoke came into view. This was easily visible on the live camera feed. I took the camera off when it was near is best presentation to attempt visual observation.
Using a G filter and a power of 350x i was amazed to see this spoke was quite easily visible - marking my first ever visual observation of a ring spoke!

Moon occults Jupiter in a beautiful scene up there this morning!
Here’s a quick HDR blend of 2 videos captured with the Seestar. I thought it looked great so far.
I captured this in hi-res with my big scope. Should I process a “full detail” shot with this as the foundation?
This has to be one of the best photos I've ever received here at @NBCConnecticut. Betsy in Cheshire shared this with me. That's not a full moon....that's "earthshine" illuminating the moon. The moons of Jupiter are the small objects!!

Saturn movie from October 3-4th, 2026
This was made using the new Planetary Derotator program from Dominique Dierick and Luc Debeck (very impressed with this program so far - well done to both on making this software!)
Mostly good seeing during the session. Here we see Saturn's moon Tethys and its shadow in transit across the planet. Many faint spokes are also seen in the rings.

Inspector Smile is ready for science! 🫡
This is Smile’s first ultraviolet view showing an auroral substorm.
With the ultraviolet camera now operational, Smile becomes the first spacecraft since 2008 to capture the full ring of northern lights around the north pole in ultraviolet light.

A successful Earth flyby improves Juice’s course to Jupiter.
Earlier today, @ESA_Juice flew just 8640 km above the Indian Ocean and snapped these images with its onboard monitoring cameras.
