These are the last photos of the northern lights, which I was able to photograph during the trip to Iceland from September 2019.
During last nights I’ve took these photos I slept very little. The quantity as well as the scope of the performance that was taking place above my head, beat all the previous ones I’ve seen so far.
During the last nights when I took these photos, I slept very little. The scale and intensity of the spectacle unfolding above my head overshadowed all the previous ones I had seen until then.
is a face-on spiral galaxy distanced 21 million light-years (six megaparsecs) away from Earth in the constellation Ursa Major. M101 is a large galaxy, with a diameter of 170,000 light-years. By comparison, the Milky Way has a diameter of 100,000 light years. It has around a trillion stars, twice the number in the Milky Way.
Also known as Caldwell 14 or open clusters NGC 869 and NGC 884, ( often designated h Persei and χ Persei, respectively), which are close together in the constellation Perseus. Both visible with the naked eye, NGC 869 and NGC 884 lie at a distance of 7,500 light years.

Astrophotography by Dariusz Krzempek
At some point while using the controller, I noticed that the ESC button wasn’t always working. I lived with it, but after a while, the left Ra button also started acting up and wouldn’t always connect. A red flag went up in my head – something needed to be done. It’s worth noting that the problems appeared right after the warranty period ended… coincidence?
The GOTO controller is extremely convenient and practical to use, when you want to look at interesting night sky objects, with your own eye through the eyepiece mounted in the telescope’s focuser. The ability to quickly select an object using the GOTO controller, is invaluable.
